Ok for October

Early October, 65 degrees.

Course was in fair condition. Greens were ok but some greens had a lot of damage and sand. Bunkers were in poor condition.

Great day!

The weather was perfect and the pace of play was very good. Not rushed, sometimes a little wait ahead.

Worthless staff

New policies, not posted a yea here, paid for a cart but carts are t allowed out after 4. I’m sorry but if you change a policy on Friday and my reservation was made on Tuesday then I should be grandfathered in. Not the first time I’ve felt like this course ripped me off. They always blame golf now but in reality it’s the staff’s incompetence..

Great day out

Course was fun to play even after getting 2 inches of rain the night Before. I liked the course and will be back great for price! My only gripe would be not putting singles and doubles behind a foursome I’m having a play up on you and having to let people play through!
