Greens are trash

Course layout is fun, nice fairways and tee boxes but the greens are beat up bad. Not worth the price tag

Play somewhere else

My wife and I played the course on July 6th, 2021. We played it years ago and it use to be in excellent condition. NOW however, its in very poor condition. Fair ways are wash board, cart paths are broken and damaged, greens are dying with large areas of black spots, sand bunkers with little or no river sand, the ruff has multiple weeds grasses if at all, this tract should be plowed into a new condo project. We were very very disappointed.

Below average

Greens all had dark patches and looked terrible. I think it was number 15, that was surrounded by dozens of geese. There were goose droppings everywhere covering the red tee box and around the green. It was barely playable.

The pro shop employee was borderline rude and acted as if I was bothering him to rent a club. This was our 4th day playing in the area, and it was by far our least favorite course.

Nice course with challenging front 9, which requires good course management. Played in the rain so it was cart path only, which made it more challenging due to the terrain. A few putting greens around creeks and lake had lots of geese poop. Hope this will get cleaned up soon.

We will play it again.

we weren't sure

Had a local tell us cove wasn't in super shape due to a late start due to the rona. But we gave it a try. It was in great shape. No bare spots or bad spots anywhere we were. Staff had control of the leaves so there wasn't much lost ball searching in piles. Layout is real fun and beautiful with a few par 3s over coves. Takes some strategy on some tee shots as it's not always driver. Only bummer was 8 days before they had aeriated so the greens weren't their best. But the pro had warned us before we paid and told us after we paid to go check it out and see if we wanted a refund. They were in need of a mow for sure but we knew what was in store. Play it

The Cove is back

Course is in very good shape. Last year it was rough. The layout has always been one of my favorites at LOTO and now the improved conditions make it a must play. Keep up the good work.
