Nice little course trying to come back
Thus is a nice little course in the northern suburbs. 9 hole executive that has a straightforward setup. Course can be challenging if you don’t pay attention to your shot.
Unfortunately, the course is trying to come back from idiots who vandalized all the greens in the spring. Owners and management are working hard hard to restore the greens. Currently, all greens do have grass, but over seeded and long to facilitate regrowing. Current greens fees are reasonable given the greens conditions and pace of play is great. Definitely would play again!!
No one at club house - prepaid
Holes greens were aerated and unplayable due to holes and plugs in a ring around the greens
Should not have had tee times
Fun Little Course
Had a nice round. Course is a little tricky to follow.
Grass in the rough was long. Loved the "potato chip" greens!
Pinewood, meh
To start, the website is awful and no way to book tee times online. So I called, and nobody answered. Found out you can book through a 3rd party app online, so I did that. Clubhouse was tiny and had barely any selection of drinks/snacks. The greens were absolutely awful on every hole, despite fairways being okay. Lawn care was mowing alongside us for 6 of the 9 holes. Had two separate cars drive by honking and telling obscenities as we were teeing off. Basically the entire experience was crappy, and I’ll never golf there again, regardless of the price.
Course is great for beginners and it’s cheap so it’s great for people who want to play and are trying to save there is only a water hazard on hole 1 and 3 and I would like it if there was some sand traps and more water hazards throughout the course. Course does go near houses and a road so you do have to be careful but other than that it’s a great course
Review
Greens were in terrible condition.
The rest of the course was great.
Nice casual course.
If your looking for a cheap casual course this will get the job done. Greens could use some help.
Summer_of_Heat
The greens suffered this summer due to heat and lack of water supply, so they were a challenge.
Overall, the course was fine for the price. A good day for excerise doing a fun thing inexpensively.
Greens
Greens are absolutely terrible with many spots of no grass. But for my type of game and just out to have fun, it was ok.
Unfortunate
I have played this course several times. And have never seen it in this condition. The fairways, greens and tee boxes are in terrible shape. This is not a winter kill scenario. This is a lack of effort to maintain the course. I’ve played poor conditions but this is a total lack of concern for the conditions. Unfortunate…
Fun little 9
Greens are slowly coming back to life from winter kill and dry spring. Decent mix of beverages and a few snacks to purchase. Plays pretty quick even when busy. Good mix of hole lengths for a shorter course and lots of trees.
Conditions
We have played this course several times over the years but I have never seen it in the condition that it was on June 3rd. The fairways were not cut, the greens were brown on many of them. I really like the course but it needs to be maintained better.
