Summer Round

Played here yesterday morning. Course was wide open and we finished in 2-1/2 hours. Immaculate condition. Only complaint were the big trucks removing the oleanders on the front nine.

A nice break

Anytime you can leave your driver home, it’s like a vacation.

Good practice with irons and challenging greens.

Wow! Hidden Gem

I’ve lived in the area for 50 years. Have golfed at countless courses, but never here.

We were absolutely blown away by this fabulous hidden gem.

Par 3 golf isn't for everyone. Thanks for giving us a try.

We have 18 par 3's ranging from 70 yards up to 200 yards.

We strive for friendly and helpful service with great course conditions and the best view in town.
