fall season

I have played at William Larkin all summer, and so far the course is in good shape. The only points I think you should be aware about is that they are letting the course go a little bit. I know that there are a few lowlands and that is alright, there isn't much you can do, but the cart paths are really getting a lot of ruts that need to be fixed. The only other thing that concerns me is that the greens are way too fast. Some are like rolling on concrete. Overall though a nice course

Good 9 hole local course.

Greens are fast and sloped, tee boxes in bad condition, bunkers ok, fairways good, rough good, but many areas especially around the greens aren't well-maintained (weedy, bare spots, etc.). This little course can be very challenging.

Great shape! Great price

Got deal on GN for $18.88 (approx $22) WITH cart! Greens were in great shape. Rolled like they read. Fairways and tee boxes too looking good. Loved that the 9 hole had 2 par 5s too. Everyone real friendly. Got paired up with local golfer made good convo. I’ll be back tomorrow.
