Greens were PGA. NOT Amateur Level

Love the course...

But the pin placements were RIDICULOUSLY HARD?.

PINS ON THE SIDE OF HILLS WITH FAST GREENS?

REALLY?

Good Track

A difficult track for seniors like me with a 15-16 handicap hitting from the White Tees, but challenging is good!

Muddy but good

Cart path only, but understandable. We had quite a bit of rain over the last few days. Course is in good shape. Greens run true. Quite a bit of standing water in different places on the fairway. Actually much easier to play this time of year than during the summer when the tall rough hasn’t grown in yet. Good time.

One of the best for your money

Great greens always in good shape can be quick. You get a little bit of everything. Lay out has some of everything elevated greens and tee boxes. Some long par fours, doglegs, water, mounds, small ditches or creeks guard a few holes must carry to reach green. Some holes are wide open some have narrow openings. 18th hole you have to decide your line off the tee to a very long second shot that you must carry wet grassy area.

It's 10 minutes away from me, and it's a pretty difficult course, and I like that, and the staff and starter were very friendly. Course was inexpensive because of hot deal on tee off app.
