Decent Practice Course

If you have the option, always select Marsh Oaks over this course. I had not played it in 3 years and the Hot Deal was too good to pass up. How bad could it be? Well, you get what you pay for. The fairways are in bad shape. There are several dead spots and it's like hitting your ball out of a divot every other shot. The tee boxes could also use some work. The greens are in decent condition. The pace of play is terrible. There were 3 groups on the tee box every single hole. if you're just using this course as a practice round, you will won't be disappointed. If you're expecting more than that, pay the extra and play Marsh Oaks. Be aware that the golf carts are older and don't have windshields. This could be a factor as the weather starts to change.

We will not play here again even if was FREE.!! No Covid practice either. We played for 5 1/2 hours and never finished WAITED ON EVERY SHOT. TOTALLY RIDICULOUS . They just want your money and you are on your own Never ever AGAIN.

Too Slow, Course in Rough Shape

Should not take 5 hours for a round. Waited on every shot. Rangers need to monitor pace of play

Fairways were not much different than rough. Tee boxes in terrible shape.

Way too expensive compared to similar courses.

The course was terrible

Very very disappointing. Took my brother there. I was embarrassed . We could not believe the course was in such bad shape. The layout of the course was extremely unfair. Tree branches going across many of the tee boxes. Once in the fairways there was many blind greens. Speaking of the greens they were filled with bare spots. Tos sum it up I rated the course a 1 out of 5. Will never play again. Was so glad I had 1/2 off coupon. Certainly a rip off as $50 course. So many very nice courses in the area. What a shame the owner is letting this course go to sh*#.

Horrible course

I would not recommend this course to anyone I know, the fairways had no grass on them they were all dirt, the tea boxes were tore up. For $30 I could’ve played at a much nicer course with much better fairways, this is unacceptable I will never be playing golf here again

Terrible Condition

Fairways were horrible. Mix of scattered tufts of grass, dead grass and very little actual fairway grass. Definitely not worth $43. Maybe at $10.

Played here years ago and fond memories no gone. Worse course played in many years. Shameful. And sorry to say. Maybe the money is going to new 18. But Golfnow should provide a warning that this place is very run down.

Course was in poor condition

Pretty sure they have a major grub problem, greens were all chewed same with fairways. Tee boxes were in good condition. Pace of play was horrible waited 20 minutes past tee time just for a cart( they were out of carts and washing them as other golfers were finishing.) Staff was friendly prices were good on a hot deal definitely not worth more then 18 dollars. Weekend expect plus 4 hr round. Weekdays you can play a fast time possibly

Terrible shape!

They have let this course go to waste. The fairways are cracked clay and have little to no grass left at all. Paid $43 on a weekend to play the worst course conditions we have ever seen.
