Always excellent

Nice fairways with thick rough and fairway bunkers that come into play if you aren't careful. Look out for creeks crossing the fairway. Greens roll true and are a little speedy.. Always a good experience here.

Great time

Great course and good value with Golf Now. In excellent shape although the extended rough was penal and required too much time seeking wayward shots.

BAD PACE AND STAFF FRIENDLINESS

I usually play this course a couple times a month but not sure if we will return after yesterdays round. Got there 15 minutes early, went in to get the cart keys and the gentlemen was very unfriendly and rude. Was told a single was in front of us. Turned out to be a student and his girlfriend both playing with his clubs. They were extremely slow, had no golf etiquette and wouldn't let us pass. We tried calling the golf house multiple times to see if they can do something about it but never picked up the phone. Took an hour and a half to play three holes. Ended up not being able to finish our round because it got too dark.

Great course

Only thing frustrating was after my round was done the clubhouse was locked so couldn’t even use the restroom or get food. Everything else was great for it storming the day before. I want to go back during summer time to see the course in its glory!

Spring golf

Enjoyed round in spite of wet conditions. Fairways were wet with occasional standing water. Greens were surprisingly dry and quick.

Challenging

I do love this course and it was in great shape today. The greens were a little fast but not terrible. It’s just a challenging course and it’s a great way to start off the season.
