Reviews
Love this course!
Great course with some really awesome holes.
A big, big handclap to the sand traps that are actually sand! No rocks and no hard crust! A lot of other course could learn something about sand traps from them.
This course is a little over an hour from my house or I would golf there a lot more often.
Great Value
This was a nice walking course as it is relatively flat. The course has all the length you could want and there are many different sets of tees to suit anyone. The staff were super friendly and I really enjoyed the course layout. I would definitely play here again.
Nice course, wet weather
The course was in good condition, and the pin placements were fair. The greens are a little slow, but overall very nice to play.
Not updated
First, the staff was great! They were helpful and accommodating throughout.
The golf course was not in acceptable playing conditions. I read reviews and can’t believe that they are real after visiting this course. There was not one ranger and the round took 5 hours and 35 minutes. The pictures are a complete sham depicting the course from years past.
Nice staff / amenities
Nice staff and amenities, but really lacking a marshall. Took over 5 hours to play with three hours being on the back 9 with a 4 group traffic jam.
The group ahead of us decided to leave rather than wait.
Painful Experience
Five plus hour round. Zero ranger presence. For all the rain we had there was an awful lot of dead spots. Greens like a dusty pool table. Used to be worth the drive in high season.
Good condition
Played very early on that day, nobody was in front of us so pace of play was great. Greens and fairways were in great condition. Sand trap were ok. Some of the rough need some work but overall ok.
Windy Day on the Course
Since we have played the course many times I know what to expect in general. This time we found the tee boxes to be extremely hard and very difficult yo place tees in the ground. This despite the rain that has fallen this year. If the tee boxes could get some attention that would really be appreciated.
Good surprise
Besides the condition of fairway and some greens this course is very good. I really like. I will be back soon
