Rude staff, Overpriced, overbooked, subpar conditions
It’s early in the season so I can excuse the sub-par conditions of the course (that’s being extremely generous the fairways are barely fairways, the collars around the greens are patchy as heck, so on). What I find inexcusable is the staff and starter are extremely rude, hurry you, and overall standoff-ish and unfriendly in every sense of the word. Above it all, my round costed ~$95 with a cart. Shame on me for paying, but I just wanted to play some golf. You may think by the rate your playing some semi-public golf club with nice conditions and amenities. Don’t be fooled, don’t book, I’m never coming back.

Great course to learn the game
It’s a very player friendly course, convenient to the city and a little challenging at times. Makes you think.
