Worth the Hot Deal

Never would I pay $65 to walk 9 holes here, but the $60 18 hole cart-included Hot Deal is worth every penny. Greens were in great shape for all times of year, fairways were quick and green, rough was good but very patchy, and tee boxes were 50/50. Some odd angles and work needed but a fun course with some tests, and some easy holes.

Good for nine holes..........

Playing the same holes a second time can be boring unless you want to correct previous mistakes.

Although fairly empty of players and pace was comfortable, the ranger lurks around, especially the first couple of holes, watching you just in case.

No warning about greens being aerated

We were given no warning that the greens had been aerated. The putting was awful. Totally ruined our experience. In general when a course has been recently aerated, there is a warning before booking. In this case there was no such notification. I would never have paid so much to play on aerated greens. In the future I would hope that the course would be more honest about this before customers spend their hard earned money to play a course that you can’t putt on.

A Thinking Course

Many tee shots require less than a driver and are blind. Course management is key. The greens are true

Ranger

We were a foursome and we were not playing slow. We finished playing in 4 hrs 15 minutes. The Ranger came to us several times asking us to speed up play and watching us hit. The group in front of us was only 3 players and they were a hole in front of us. This has happened every time I’ve played this course. I find it very uncomfortable.

Not for outsiders. Advanced club players only

If u r not fast enough they tell u. Made to wait 10 minutes at a hole while others went ahead even though there was no one waiting at the Tee.

Cater to members only. Was told if we didn’t hurry, we cld possibly miss a hole. Not right for the high price paid for 9 holes.
