Optimized Space

Thei course was fun to play and it is in great condition. However, it is immediately adjacent to an industrial park under construction and I-75 freeway. Both are sources of bothersome noise that can show up during your backswing.

Slow Play

We were a twosome playing behind a foursome that played from the Blues but probably needed to play from the Reds. Never offered us to play through. 5 1/2 hour round. Ridiculous!

Challenging Course on a Picturesque Piece of Property

This course is an enjoyable yet challenging place to play golf. There is a combination of short holes and long holes with intricate greens that will hold your attention throughout the round.

So Slow!

I generally have patience for slow play but the course/ ranger did nothing to help speed up play. Front nine was 3:15 and we had talked with the ranger about getting the group, about 4 groups ahead of us, to get moving. That was around the 7th hole. Back nine took 3:00 for a total of 6:15 minutes. I don’t think I have ever taken so long to play 18 holes. With a lot of course in the area to choose from, I don’t know if I will be returning here for a while.

Nice layout.

We just played 9 holes, (hawk side). It was a very nice layout with many hills. The greens were fast, but in excellent shape. I really enjoyed the round as it was a very fair coarse to the average golfer. I will definitely be back to see what the other holes are like.
