Great Public Course

Special. Not often you see mounds in a fairway on public courses. Up and down with a little side tilt to the course was fun. Greens will test you. Large driving range and chipping area.

Amazing

I like the course because, the view was amazing in the back 9. The course was really nice. The layout was very surprising to find that it was easier than I had anticipated. I was thinking something like Swope. That course was crazy hard for me. So when I read it was difficult or hard, I was anxious. I am still new at playing golf. I usually play at Minor because it is down the street from my house. I think it is really easy but like I said, I am still new. I love the course. I will be back soon. Thank you the experience. I enjoyed myself.

Fred Arbanas course

This course includes some spectacular views thanks to the sun and nearby Longview lake. Overall I enjoyed the course. I went at 4pm so it was impossible to complete 18 but in the 3 and a half hours on the course I completed 14 holes. The course was in relatively good condition for so early in the year. The staff was very nice and accommodating. Looking forward to my next visit.

Course was in good shape for the time of year, but the pace of play was slow 4 hours and still had 2 holes to play. Marshals should move those who want to look for balls .

Greens have too much slant. Very hard to keep the ball on the green.

Hidden Gem

Found a deal on GolfNow., so took a chance. Man great course. The ONLY thing, and not the courses fault, is that the PEOPLE STINK and cannot take care of the greens. Pick your FNG feet up when you walk and repaid your ball marks.
