Very bad course. Greens look nice but are very slow with lots of slope. This caused several 3 putts.

Blind shots

My first time playing this course. There are both pros and cons in my review.

Tee’s: Need work, they are worn, uneven and very hard. It’s difficult to put a tee in the ground.

Fairways: Inconsistent, enough grass to drop a ball if you end up in a bare spot, but there are a significant number of burnt out spots. With dry conditions you can get a lot of roll, but it may also lead to bad bounces that will end up in the rough.

Rough: Not really defined, just where they stopped mowing. It is thin, so you can find you ball in most cases,.

Greens: These are the highlight of the course. They are well manicured and run true for the most part. They are also quite challenging with many pin placements in difficult positions.many have significant undulations and gradient. It is very possible to turn a close 8 foot putt into an 18 foot putt if you putting down hill.

Vista’s This is a pretty course with multiple lakes, streams, hills, meadows and woods. Best of all, no houses.

Layout: This is not a cookie cutter course. Holes are unique, narrow in some cases and challenging. This also brings me to a negative point. There are multiple holes with blind shots. Playing a course for the fist time is frustrating when you have no idea what your hitting into. I lost a few balls just because I had no idea what happened after they landed.

Needs so much on-course TLC

Greens and traps are good. Course routing is interesting and provides variety. But the tee boxes and the fairways are a mess. Way too many bare spots, you have to play "lift clean and place" and hope there is a patch of actual grass within a club length. Can't go back until ownership invests in the grass, they should close 9 holes and work on fixing them and then close the other 9 the following year.

Thank you very much for your comments. We are working on the fairways and tees getting more irrigation for grass. We hope you come back out to play with us now that we've been getting some rain.

Always a pleasure

Let's start with the friendly staff and go from there.

1. Outstanding greens. Please don't cut them down

2. Layout is most challenging and fulfilling

3. Traps and surrounding bunkers are excellent.

A couple of recommendations.

1. Rotate the tee boxes. 50% were over used.

2. Pray for rain!

Excellent day of golf. Thank you

Great for the price on a beautiful day

The staff was super friendly and the price was right for a Friday afternoon round, but the course needs some serious maintenance. Cart paths were disastrous in some areas and the grass needed a lot of attention throughout the course. There’s also minimal amenities, just the club house with a cooler and some snacks. However the rates are appropriate for the course.

Thanks for the positive review.

We have been working on the course, getting irrigation repaired and running. Everything is looking a lot better, now that we've had some rain. We actually do serve hot dogs and things usually on just the weekends but now that it's nicer we will be offering them some during the week. Come back out to play.

Good value.

The course greens are very nice and well maintained. They are night and day better than other courses at this price range I have played recently. The fairways are hard as a rock in some places and clubs will be scraped up if taking a shot off these patches of ground.

Thanks for your review.

Our grounds staff has been working hard at getting our irrigation repaired and going to help out. With the rain we have had everything is looking a whole lot better. We hope you can get back out to see us.

Budget friendly course

Pace of play and course conditions are not in a good spot now. Some fairways are clay and gravel. Paid $25 for 18, only played 9 holes because it took 2 hours 45 mins. Course has a beyond decent design. Greens rolled very slow but were true. Some pin locations were on a slope.

Very busy and slow pace, grass not doing well.

Very busy Saturday. Took over 3 hours for just the front 9 in a cart. Staff was not amenable to moving parties around to handle some slow groups.

Greens were in decent shape but challenging. Rest of the course’s grass isn’t doing so well, especially when wet and soggy.

Course is still reeling from wet weather. Fairways need more grass & tee boxes are getting not level. I like this course, but it needs some grounds improvement. I know we are coming out of winter, so I know the course will improve.
