Bugs! Bugs ! Bugs!

Really nice golf course . That being said, my

round was ruined by a rediculous amount of

Small biting nats. Then a bee bite.,Trip to

Urgent Care and two sleepless nights with

Crazy itch. When they are gone, I’ll definitely be back.

Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!

I came very close to walking in to what turned out to be a lovely golf course. There were nuts all over the place. It was so bad. I got bitten so many times also had a beast thing and ended up in urgent care after a sleepless night. I will definitely return once I’m sure the weather turns colder and the bug problem no longer exists. Not sure what the Club could do to currently fix this problem.

Nice walkable course

The west course is mostly flat so it is good for those that enjoy walking the course. There's a good amount of water. Recommend bringing bug repellent. The course is good for those who like to hit the driver. Not an overly challenging course but it is still very nice and enjoyable to play.

A golf course to spend the day with a friend

After a round of golf can enjoy a beer and a bite ; courteous staff ; a lot of gnats at various holes ; unfortunately was a slow round ; last time I golfed here was years ago and had a great pace of play

This is a scam

Do not use Golfnow for this. Although booking 18 holes by Golfnow, the proshop only allows 9 holes which cost about $50 per person.
