Good value and beautiful scenery

My husband and I played this course on a weekday. It was very busy but the pace was good and the staff was very friendly. There are some gorgeous views of the course set in the valley of surrounding mountains. I would definitely play here again for the price value. The reason for some of the lower stars are due to rough patches in some of the fairways where we had to play as "ground under repair" even though these areas were not marked as such. Also, because man of tee boxes were on unleveled and very ate up ground. But the most important part - the greens - played well!

Great round!

The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. One member of our foursome did not have clubs and is left handed and the staff were able to provide us a set of clubs for them to use free of charge. The course was in great condition and tee times were spaced out enough that we never got backed up at any point. I would love to come back and play again.

Great Layout, poor condition

I always enjoy the layout of this course; especially the original Donald Ross front nine. Very tight with small greens. Back nine is more open with larger greens. However, the predominant surface you are hitting off of is clover on the greens and fairways. And the greens were painfully slow.

Staff was rude and unhelpful, I had questions as it was my first time being there and using golf now but the only answer they would give me is contact golf now, not willing to work with people, the course was not great either

Good course

Nice course

Greens a little slow even though they were aerated a month ago, still had sand on them

Tough layout with a number of uphill shots but very pretty

Inexpensive and worth the money

Biggest downside no where to get a water or soda with the bar/restaurant closed at 930 when we teed off and 1130 when we made the turn
