What is going on here?

This course is in terrible condition, the roof is not mowed the fairways the greens and the tea boxes are a mess. I don’t know whatever happened to this course who made the decisions, but it is nothing like it was just a short year ago.. it was this really nice country golf course that I used to go to for years, and it has just turned into a mess. I can’t say that I would return to play this course again unless it was taken into somebody else’s greenskeeper because this is not very well done at all

Not a bad course, but the the rough was about 4 inches tall the back was more taken care of. The greens were really nice so if it wasn’t so far away, I would definitely come back and play.

Great condition

This course is in great condition. Staff was extremely nice. Very large party contributed to poor pace of play, but this was a unique situation. Will be back. Very good value given condition of the course.

It would have been great if rain didn’t kill the day

Rain ruined the day. When I drove all the way there, we were informed that carts weren’t allowed due to the rain, so we had to walk the entire distance. After a few holes, it was enough to give up.

Ridiculous rough

It’s been a while since I last played here. A friend mentioned that the rough was long. For a nice muni the rough was nearly unplayable. Lost 3 balls that I thought I watched pretty well. Staff apologized when I signed in. A mower had been out of service. Greens were in outstanding shape. Putted straighter than I would have believed possible. It’s a nice, playable course.

Fun course, painfully slow round

Before I get into the issues, I'll say I really enjoyed the layout, it's challenging but fair. The fairways and greens are in perfect shape. The food and drinks are very reasonably priced.

Unfortunately, the pace of play was not acceptable. It took 3 hours to play the front 9, and just over 2.5 hours on the back. Several holes there were 2 and even 3 groups on the tee. This alone makes it hard to say if we'll be back. I know every course wants to maximize the amount of tee times and thus money made, but 8-minute gaps between tee times is never a great idea if your goal is to make the player experience the best it can be.

Also, I know we got a fair amount of rain mid-week, but the conditions of the rough was a bit over the top. A ball just off the fairway or green on most holes was hard to even find, let alone play. This also contributed to the pace of play issue. Played another course in the area the day before where the rough had been recently mowed, so it's not like it was so wet that mowing was impossible.

Lastly, while not a huge issue, we wanted to play the back tees, but on several holes had to play in front of the markers or from the whites due to the markers being so far back on the tee box, your back foot would be in the rough or there were overhanging branches that need to be trimmed to make the hole playable from the tips.

Hopefully, some of these issues are addressed going forward, because it really is a fun, nice course.
