Love playing this course a few times each year but after this experience I won't be returning. After checking in with the starter 15 mins before tee time he curtly told us to head immediately to the second tee and refused to tell us why we couldn't tee off on first hole and whether we would play hole 1 after the turn on 18. Just kept obnoxiously and condescendingly telling us the hole is closed right now with no desire to explain why. After proceeding to hole two we observed no reason for hole 1 to be closed as tee to green the hole was in fine shape with no one working on it. After making the turn on hole 9 we observed people playing hole 1 and once again we asked the same starter why the hole was closed when we teed off and if we could play the hole after we finish hole 18 and he refused to answer. His behavior was unacceptable especially since we were nothing but friendly and respectful. Maybe he was having a bad day but thats no reason to be rude to the customers. We won't be returning again this year which is a shame because we like the course and love the restaurant. Maybe next year we give it another chance.

Let start with the Tee Boxes, they were in terrible shape. The only thing in decent shape on this course was the fairways because they don’t want you driving on them. The greens were molasses slow and pock marked with divots, you can forget about cart paths they were in horrendous shape. Par 5’s shouldn’t be reachable with a driver and sand wedge. Make them par 4’s. Overall this is a one and done course that wasn’t worth the time or money to play.

Had an enjoyable golf outing on a steamy Hot Friday.

Course was in good shape. Excellent greens, except for some noticeable divots.. Golfers- fix your divots

Fairways & tee boxes were good.

Recommended.

I've played this course last year. Course was in better condition than expected since we haven't had steady rain in a long time. The rough was burnt out in many places but the fairways and greens were good. Sucks for me since I'm not in the fairway alot. However, this day I hit many fairways to my surprise. The course has many short holes and mostly straight. So, if you hit it straight you are golden. The par 5's can be a potential eagle if you can hit 2 good shots. 2 of them I hit a good drive and 3 wood. Shocking since 1st hole is a par 5. BUT put it in the water to left of green, Forgot it was there. Second par 5 got my 3 wood on hill of rough. Of course duffed my chip so was looking at par or bogey. Not birdie. All in all, weather was nice, hot but not too humid. I didn't play really well, but did my usual. However, 2 cigars and a few beers with a friend made it a great day. Also, play with 2 other young guys who were great. Second time I teamed up with a twosome that were great. Totally recommend the course to anyone. Its also close to where I live so thats a bonus.

Fairways are in good shape. Greens were in great shape quite challenging from the whites. Greens were hard to read and very tricky with a lot of slope. Better put the ball in the right place or you will be 3 jacking like me all day. I’m definitely coming back to conquer the greens, but I think that’s a good thing. I’ve been playing this course for years took a couple years off but now I’m back at it.
