Too many people booked at this time. Especially new golfers that slowed down the pace of play. I was unable to get my 18 holes in before it turned dark.

Packed, but kept pace

The course was absolutely packed, but somehow it still managed to keep a decent 4:15 pace.

My home course

I really enjoy this course. The course is a great bang for your buck. The course is quite short even from the tips, but I wouldn’t say it’s super easy. Tee boxes are in fairly good condition, however some tee boxes are uneven. The quality of the greens has increased from last year, They are faster than they use to be. This is a fun course to play, I would definitely recommend it.

First Time Playing

Worth playing at least once

This is a course where you have to be one of the first groups out. The pace of play really slowed down on the back 9 to the point where I left after hole 13. Amazing course and I’d definitely play here again.

Slow play

Overall a good course for one owned by the city. Play is extremely slow and have groups playing from the tips with their drives only going 20 yards past the White Tees. Marshals need to be more frequent around the course to increase pace of play.
