Course is in bad shape

This course has gone downhill quite a bit. The greens were chewed up. Some greens were under repair and makeshift pins were placed in the fairway with no notice prior to playing. Cart paths not maintained. Shame, as this course has been nice in the past.

I get it is the end of the season but, to not only cut holes in the fairway on more than half of the greens but then not let us know what to expect or offer us a discount is a shame. Poor player experience

Temporary greens

Beautiful course, that being said. Most of the holes had temporary greens, and the ones that didn’t the greens were horrendous. If I had known I would not have booked the round. Checked their website and nothing was mentioned about the greens. Refund is in order , but don’t expect it.

Majority off greens were temporary greens.

I booked this course through golfnow. It was fairly expensive but booked at last moment. When we began play we found out that most of the greens were closed and replaced with temp greens. There was no warning while booking and not even a discount given. Very disappointed.

Course has zero puttable greens

They need to fix the greens. There are zero puttable greens. This has been the case since summer 2022. Please fix them.

Folks are nice but golf is bad. Hope 2023 is better.

50% temporary greens

All the greens are struggling here in mid-October: large grassless patches are present even on the greens that are in play; and nine of the holes have temporary holes, several of which seem like tricky mini-golf holes. The putting practice green has been closed for weeks, and the driving range was closed for hours in the morning before my tee time. Local golfers should let the course have time to heal and come back in spring 2023. If you must play, take a laser rangefinder to get your yardages, since smartphone apps will not be consistently useful on your approach shots.

Horrible

Pace of play was extremely slow. No one to regulate what so ever. If you are a horrible golfer this is the place for you. Staff is friendly enough and the half house guy was nice. Get a hotdog and drink from him .

Course was nearly unplayable

Half of the greens were temporary, the ones open were in horrible shape, with half of many greens browned out. I won’t be playing here again this season

Has potential - needs work

The course truly has potential but they don’t seem to care about maintenance this year. We putted probably a total of 5 times. Every other flag was off the green in the fairway.
