Pleasantly surprised!!

I think this is the only course that you can play, loose a dozen balls and still have a good time. I took my daughter with me for her second time on a golf course. She had a blast!!! We will return.

Poor drainage is my only criticism.

This course provided a great bang for the buck!

Fun little course

Make sure to bring extra balls, you will most likely lose more than a few. Greens are fast. Overall it's a fun little course.

Great par 3

Small par 3 course, worth every penny, great cost, challenging water holes on the front 9. Perfect for practicing wedge/iron game. This was my 3rd time playing here, I will be back!

Believer the previous reviews. My husband and I went as a last minute booking. It’s truly a test of your short game with water death traps. I’m not a pro golfer but be prepared to lose at least a ball a hole where there’s water or even not. It’s everywhere. We left after hole 6.

Good for practice

Good place to practice and work on different scenarios at but if you’re a beginner this is not the course for you; there’s a lot of water and it’s a difficult course

Can be fun but don't recommend for new players

This shouldn't be your first game because there will be so many balls lost as to be discouraging. Holes 3 through 9 involve major water hazard so any miss hit will lose a ball, and some of them have short greens where the ball will roll off in the back.

However, if you've played a few rounds, have a decent swing, this will challenge your short game and for that it is great, but no better than a typical par 3 course

The greens are not good. You can't count on your ball staying on line as the grass is choppy.

Ball Donation

The course is challenging. Especially the front 9 where the greens are surrounded by water. We were not a fan of how close the green/flags line up to someone else teeing off another hole. Also, we did not like the tee boxes being on artificial turf. Made the experience a little less fun. Great to practice irons but most holes were just too small ranging from 60-90 yards.

Great for fun and practice

Great fun and practice at your short game. Bring balls you don’t care about. Me and my wife donated a box worth between two trips 😂. Loved it though!

Fun Course, Lots of water!

This was a great course to take my wife to play since she doesn’t play regularly but enjoys the driving range. She also happened to hit a hole in one on #17! The course was a bit muddy but can’t expect much else in late November.

Really cool layout

Although I donated more balls at this mini course than ever, love the concept and layout. Good bang for buck. An update is needed.

Challenging and fun

This course is short par 3 you could play with 9 iron and putter plenty of holes that play over water hazard for a challenge.
