Nice Executive 18 hole

Mostly Par 3's with a couple Par 4's. Fairways are very close together. Greens were fast and challenging.

Great course to perfect your Irons and putting.

I'll be going again soon.

Good for the price

If you are looking for a course to work on your irons, this could be your place. I played 18 by myself in the late morning and was able to drop an extra ball if I felt the need. Very hospitable staff. They have a small putting and chipping green (mostly putting) and a net to drive into if you want to warm up. I used the "Hot Spot" to get a tee time for $17.

Holes to close to another

When playing at this corse you are way to close to the next hole along with the one you just played. I was about to tee off and was nearly hit by the group behind us with their ball landing in the middle of our tee box from the prior hole. This is the case in most if not all holes on this corse. Besides that there is the pace of game where you’ll be on top of the next group while they tee off for so long that once they finish the group behind you is right where you just were… waiting. Besides these two things the corse looks very nice along with it being great mid range practice since only two of the 18 holes are par 4, the rest being par 3.

Drove over 30 miles to golf 18 and got told at arrival that I could only play 9

Got told that I could play my 18 I paid for because a bigger more important group was coming at 1130 . Don’t offer tee times you can promise . Waste of time and gas.

Nobody controlling pace of play

I was in a twosome stuck behind a wildly obnoxious group of teenagers. Took almost 3 hours for 9 holes and we never saw a ranger during that time.
