Lots of play & it shows

Took 4:35 to play 18 here compared to the 2:58 it took to play at a neighboring course yesterday.

Greens run true and moderately quick for a public course when they dry out. Tee boxes are an absolute abomination (narrow marlers and completely chewed up) and the reason for my overall rating of average.

One or 2 of the holes were washed out in low lying spots due to flooding from the river meandering through the course.

Close to becoming excellent

The only complaint I have is that it seems to be overbooked quite often. Pace of play is alright and the conditions if given a little “tlc” could move up my rating. I enjoy the layout and tend to play pretty well here.

Always nice, could use some bunker TLC.

Most of the elements of a good course are here, nice greens, mostly good fairways. Bunkers are a mess. Not worked in what appears to be weeks? Since there are a lot of bunkers, this is unacceptable. Fix the bunkers and some fairway landing areas it becomes a really nice gold course.

The pace of play was awful. We saw two groups leave after 3/4 holes. A ranger never came by to tell the slow group to pick up the pace. After getting hit into on hole 9, the twosome behind us jumped us at the turn. At one point there were 5 groups waiting at a tee box for a Par 4. Two of the Par 5s are down to Par 3s due to fairway repairs.

Very nice course. Only issue was the pace of play. Took 3.5 hours to golf 9holes. Unimpressed by the course allowing someone to walk on a saturday afternoon— slows down play.

Disappointing

While playing a twilight round on the West course we were extremely disappointed to be told by a ranger(who was not friendly) to pick up our balls and that we could not finish our round. He did not even let us finish the hole we were in the middle of. This has never happened to me on a golf course, especially when the was still plenty of light left. Also, some of the tee boxes are in rough shape without much grass to put a ball on with so many divot marks. I would find somewhere else to play a round of golf, plenty of other courses available that treat you better.

Great Experience

It was our first time playing here and we really enjoyed it. It’s a nice course and really nice carts, a practice range and green, and friendly staff. Provided some good challenges with the sand traps and water.

My only bit of criticism, which is minimal, was that the ball washers smelled atrocious. And it wasn’t just one of them. Could maybe afford to be cleaned and maintained more frequently.
