Brown

Course is as dry and brown as I’ve ever seen it in 30 years of playing it. It’s still very fun to play. What’s weird is that the greens are soft and slow.

One of my favorite places to play

I always book a 630 tee time during the week and the course is always in fabulous condition, and I don't have to worry about pace of play.Staff is very friendly and the course has some unique holes. A fun place to play and work on your game

Excellent City Course

I've been playing this course for many years. The layout is excellent, conditioning excellent, designed by the great designer Bruce Mathews. The pace of play was pretty slow and I didn't see a marshal on the course.

freeway noise

Nice course. A little bothersome with the freeway noise. Course was a little challenging for a beginner like me but it was fun. Will play again

Noisy course

Course sits right next to I94 and wad so noisy you could hardly hear the person next to you. Outside of that the course was in very nice shape. A bit of a challenge for the not so experienced golfer like me. But that made it fun. Will play again but probably would not be my first choice due to the freeway.

Surprise

For a public course that gets an extreme high level of play, I was very surprised about the excellent conditions. The course is short and flat, but still has its challenges requiring good shots.

Best of the Season.

My wife and I played for $14.00 ea. + convenience fee of $6.98. The course was in the best shape of the season. It wasn't to crowded and pace of play was good. Usually, it is at least a 5 -51/2 hour round but, today it was 4 hours! For the price I would play this course everyday

Nice course

Course is always kept up well. The rough a bit too much, but I attribute that to all the rain. Nice all around course.

Love SCS!

Great greens and fairways and overall in great shape.

Love the white tees as I am 60 and not too long but challenging.

Love this place, now open to all as before SCS residents only
