Course Highlights
The course layout consistently earns high praise, featuring a more open front nine that gives way to a challenging, narrow back nine with elevated greens and stunning natural scenery. Excellent value for the price, friendly staff, and a smooth pace of play make this a rewarding round.

Major improvements

Haven’t played here in about 4 years. Course was 100 times better than last time I played. Very challenging course that will have you use every club in your bag. Played in the afternoon so no pace of play issues at all. It’s a must play course. Congrats to the maintenance crew, they have done a great job.

Great price, average condition

Only downside is the greens here are very slow all around, fairways, tee boxes, rough, and layout are all great.

I have played this course many times and it is one of my favorite layouts in the area. Greens were rolling good. Older guy working inside is super rude so that’s always fun to expect when you play.

Pace of play.

Was very frustrating. Cart path only????? Why? There were multiple groups of high school age golfers that were walking and skipping hole, jumped in front of me. One hole took 25 minutes (par 3 9th), because they skipped from the 4.th tee to the 7th. No one watching them, when they finished the 9th, they went back to 1 and there were about 6 golfers playing together. If it was a high school team, then make the coach monitor them. The back 9 was slow, if I wouldn’t have spent 25 minutes in 9, I would have been able to play through the slow twosome ahead of me. Looking for balls??? So I got to 11 and waited 15 minutes. Finished that hole and went home. Need a Marshal.

No alert of closure

Booked a tee time the day before. Drove an hour, which I’m fine with because this is one of my favorite courses, but when i arrived the gates were closed and I received no notification. I get that it was colder and windy but all I’m asking is for a notification so I don’t waste so much gas.
