Meh

Played the East. This review is for the East course. For me and my taste.the back 9 certainly better than the front.

The course was not marked well, or at all.. if you are not going to put distance marking out other than the occasional one, at least have a real scorecard instead of a photocopy so first time players know where the dog legs are. I’m not an app on phone guy, I’m on phone all day working. Mark the course better or have real s ore cards on the east.

Great course!

Great facility with two courses. I prefer the East course but West is just as challenging. Very well maintained and friendly staff make this a gem!

County course above average.

Overall a good experience playing the east course. Pace of play was slow that Monday. Short yardage but in good condition. Did not visit restaurant.

Nice course. Good greens.

Pretty basic layout. Flat fairways and greens. It’s good that they guard a fairly easy layout with long par 4 holes. I’ll be back to try the east side next time.

Nice course. Horrible staff.

Everyone that works at this course is miserable, like they're on prison work release. From the proshop to the starter and the rangers. We had a 9:50 tee time, went to the range, showed up at the first tee box at 9:45 with the ranger telling us we need to get there earlier. What a crappy comment to start the round. The course and the cart girls were great, but the staff needs to get over themselves. You work at a muni course.

Excellent

Played the West course. Tee boxes, fairways and greens all in excellent condition. Fairways better than ever and I’ve been played there about 40 years. Used to be a swamp across the road, now it’s fantastic. Only complaint would be traps could use some new sand but they are still decent. Great deal for the price in the afternoon. Started at 5pm and got 18 in on a Wednesday…done just before dark. Enjoy.
