Not worth the $$

The course was soaking wet and cart path only (not their fault)..I can accept that. Still, the course was not in good condition (aside from the water). There were inexperienced, rude golfers, extra riders in carts, overall a very lax atmosphere. Maybe we caught it on a bad day but it was certainly not worth what we paid.

Good Course That Need Remediation

This county course is impossible to book (even for county card holders like myself who get early access). The course is becoming more and more problematic when it comes to water issues. As an example, the 12th hole needs extensive environmental remediation-was once a typical par 4 but is now basically a long par 3. The cart path for this hole is so water logged that if you are walking, the staff needs to "ferry" you to the hole. Cart paths for holes 9&18 are slightly aquatic as well. Might want to dredge the lake that borders these holes.

R. O. I. Return on investment

Over crowded waiting on every hole. Due to small tee time windows. You pay to play 18 holes with a cart and your asked to return the cart after fifteen holes. So the help go home. Poorly managed! Not to mention no refreshments on the course. Distance is Poorly marked. Way overpriced, no value here.
