A little disappointed

Sadly it was a slow with 2.5 hrs on the front. Often had 3 groups on a hole. Picked up a little in the back overall 4'40" round.

Course was still in rough shape. Needs more time. A few of the greens had more sand than grass. Had to invoke a 2 putt max rule. Several others did not roll true. Probably haven't rolled these greens yet. Maybe we should have received an early season discount. Would've made me happier.

I like the layout with wide and forgiving fairways.

Staff Amazing, greens were not.

Staff at this course is always very genuine and courteous. Greens on several holes were in pretty rough shape as you can see from the photo.

Greens are bad

1/3 of the greens were covered in sand , the the other greens needed to be covered in sand and shutdown so they can recover. No warning when booking and no explanation in the proshop .

Don’t bother playing here.

Bad faith.

Not providing an upfront declaration of the poor condition of the greens is disappointing. Brutal mistake.

Stay away

Total rip off. Greens miserable. Tee boxes were in rough shape and not level.

Never Again

For the price and time of year, I would have expected a bit more. Greens were slow, 5 of them still had sand and seed. The other greens had a lot of fungus or insect damage. Fairways had not been watered in awhile. It was barely worth the price on an absolutely spectacular day.

Slow play

The course was advertised on Golf Now as full access it WAS not it was CPO. False advertising by golf now. This the third time this week Golf now had false advertising. Golf Now is a terrible site. The pace was slower than heck. Had bunch of clowns playing in front of us playing best ball. They shouldn’t have been allowed on the course. They wanted to party more the play golf. The course should have kicked them. The course was in Average condition not anything exceptional.

What's up with these greens

What is the deal with these splotchy sandy greens???? Slow, bumpy, sandy, not great. Uneven Tee boxes as well.

With these greens can't really recommend for anyone trying to put up a decent score.

Saw a lot of high handicappers just peppering people's backyards and rooftops, so that was cool.

Condition doesn’t match Price

Course has a nice layout but $100 a round for playing basically on sand greens let’s get real! Should be ashamed! Greens were terrible on the front nine not sure what happened there. The back nine was better but still in rough shape. I understand it’s overseed season, but the greens were bad. Greens that bad, golfers should be warned about or charge less.

Early in season

The course is just filling in after the typical fall punching and prep so too early for a solid review. Played for $25 so good deal. A drink and appetizer on the patio was very nice, but cost more than the golf. Staff was pleasant and course layout good. Would be a nice course to walk on a cooler day.

Scabby greens

About half of the greens looked dead, 3 of them looked like the photo attached. Nice staff and all, but a few unacceptable greens make this a course I will not go back to
