A Resort Course

A friendly, well-maintained course that contains a few very good holes and a lot of plain vanilla ones. Dollar for dollar I would not put it on a par with many others at this price, but I have no regrets. Views are pretty.

Classic Old Style Course

While this course was recently updated, it really plays like an old outer and inner circle course. It is worth playing once. Nice to see the older mansions surrounding it being updated.

Hard greens

The Links course is in pretty good condition. However, the greens, which are small to start with, were very firm, fast, and unreceptive. It is tough when you can't land on the green and hold it, so you have to land short and run it up, only to have the ball roll all the way over the green.

We paid $100 on a Hot Deal. I think this course should be around $75. We teed off at 10:32 and for some reason they had a 20 minute gap behind us. Priced a little high maybe?

Not worth the price

The grounds were hard, fairways are narrow, staff was not friendly at all. Trying to place your tee in the grounds was so dry and hard. Golfers were all over adjacent fairways. Staff was rude, short and too busy to be helpful!

Disappointing for such a nice resort

Firstly, it was windy and there had been cancellations so that probably helped the pace of play, but, on the other hand, I don’t think the wind would have helped the greens, which were hard and quite rough.

The course isn’t at all tricky, but the fairways often run parallel and we were constantly waiting for people who had strayed onto our fairway to play their ball. We all know it happens from time to time, but this was seemingly on every hole.

The tenth runs alongside the driving range and there is no net to protect you…..not ideal!

The tee boxes were very hard and, as I mentioned earlier, so were the greens. You had very little chance of holding the green if you pitched on it.

I had good company and enjoyed my afternoon, but I wouldn’t want to be paying full price for this. Perhaps if we ever get some rain, the course might play a little better.

Great Link course

Small greens very fast, keep the ball straight on front 9 and you can score, back 9 tougher.

The links

The links course is in very bad shape, the greens are terrible, not worth the money.

The estate course looked far better with a far better pace of play.

We have played this course more than five times over the course of the past year. The length has never been in such bad shape. I will never play it again.

Not worth the money

Staff was friendly and helpful. Course? Many narrow fairways line with housing units so you had better hit the ball super straight. In addition some were adjacent to busy roads which added to the tension of driving the ball. Overall, a huge disappointment. Like so many other places, the bottom line drives the amenities and they suffer because people will come to play based on the heritage of the facility. This place is obviously resting on its laurels.

Nice layout, gorgeous views

If you are looking for a parklands style course where you are more likely to spot a MLBer at Spring training than a rattlesnake, this is a great course. Reachable par 5’s, and consistent greens makes this a target course for going low. No rocks and cactus. Water doesn’t come into play. Forgiving fairways. And did I mention gorgeous views! It’s a really pretty track. Played in just under 4 hrs. Couldn’t have asked for a better option. A tad pricey, but worth it for a high handicapper looking for a chance to break 90.
