Note When Sanding Has Taken Place

Very dry. Greens had 'Sand Puddles' on them and not much grass. Fairways were very sparse. It is May. It has been dry and we paid a very cheap price. It was not totally unexpected but worse than I thought it would be.

Super friendly staff; open course layout

The course is very friendly to beginning in eater, intermediate level players. In the staff, especially Wayne, is super friendly.

Unfortunately, the course itself is in pretty rough shape. Where some of the greens were really really bad.

Putter 59

This course might have been good at one time! This should be an embarrassment to the owners and greenskeeper!

Where are they putting the green fee money ,it is not going into the course!

I will have to be paid to play here again!

Average

Have played it last year when it was in better shape. Greens were not in good shape due to repair areas and sanding.

Dissapointing

Course was in poor shape, greens were bare in spots and overall not looked after. Staff was very unfriendly from the starter to the guy at the hallway hub who couldn’t be bothered to even say hi. Very slow play and no Marshall on the course throughout the day. Just not worth it.

Maintenance

Many of the greens were in bad shape with grass missing and very hard. some had divots/ lumps so putting accuracy was challenged.

Significant fairway turf problems and many soggy areas
