Excellent Experience

I took my son out and this was the first time playing this course. It was in great shape. I played the best 9 holes on front, but the true me showed up on back. The club house looks very nice, but due to the Covid conditions, wasn't able to stay and enjoy what looks to be a very nice facility.

The course was very nice, I really enjoyed playing every hole. I did not like that I felt pressured at every hole with a team or two behind us and two teams in front of us holding everything up. I know it wasn't my fault for holding up the teams however the teams in front of us were very slow and did make it as enjoyable as it should have. I felt that I had to rush through the course. Besides feeling crammed and pressured the course was great.

Big Guy

The course was in great shape. We got behind a slow 3-some on the front but they allowed us to play through on the back. The course was very challenging; but I still got a birdie!

Rushed

Loved the course but was rushed since there was an outing at 1 o'clock. We were told on hole 14 if we did not pick up the pace we could not finish. Well, that is hard when there is a group in front of you. We were literally teeing off which them down the fairway so we could finish the last four holes. For the price we paid, that was extremely disappointing. I doubt I will go back due to this issue. I don't feel it was very fair since we played a good pace and were done in four hour (there was a foursome).

Workers on mowers were getting very very close and were having their mowers on 20 feet away watching us golf.
