Great course - course upkeep is very good considering it’s public. The greens are slick and firm and the fairways are nice and tight. Definitely a players course with opportunities, but mistakes will cost you. Staff is cordial and hospitality focused. Recommended.

Great course but quite the challenge. Stray from fairway and trouble lurks. Initial rough is thick grass and comes foot high weeds.

Don’t miss the fairway !
The rough was absolutely ridiculous. Miss the fairway by two feet and you could not find your ball. Not just in one hole by all 18. That ruined the entire round despite great greens, tees and fairways. You can’t just ignore mowing the rough for a week.
