Reviews
Not about golf
It seems that this resort is more interested in everything but golf. The course has beautiful views and a nice layout but is in terrible condition. Also they had a wedding on the 10th tee that day. When we approached the 18th green 2 children from the wedding party were playing around the green and we couldn’t even finish the last hole.
The staff at the course were all amazing. Alex, the starter, went out of his way to help us navigate around a wedding that was taking place at the tenth tee box. The course, on the other hand, needs a lot of work. The greens and tee boxes need to be rebuilt, there were several areas where the cart path was just a dirt path and the boardwalks felt like they were going to collapse when we drove over them.
Views
The course is very difficult with little room for error off the fairways. The greens are not in great shape. Just driving around the valley, looking at the mountains, is what makes this course fun.
Worst greens and course conditions
Course was in terrible shape. Granted I belong to a club, but course conditions were worst than a muni/public course. I WOULD not recommend playing it.
Greens were muni level
Course was pretty fun. However about 1/3 of the greens were in horrendous shape.
Weekday play
Pace was excellent- as was fairway conditions. 6-7 greens were fairly beat up
Great time in the trees
Beautiful course in good shape. Very tight with narrow fare-ways. Leave your driver in the bag
Need Some TLC
The first five holes in the mountain area were awesome, then you went down to valley area and the holes were average with a lot of areas where you had to hit over the marsh areas, which my wife did not like (lost balls).
The course needs some care for or on the tee boxes and greens.
Poor conditions
Great staff, and layout. Very fun course… however, the conditions are below average. “Driving range” is a mat and net, greens in rough shape. Fairways/rough full of clovers, bunkers with grass, not taken care of.
Again, very fun layout, but for $130 it was disappointing. Hope they can get the course in better shape because the potential is there.
Horrible staff
This is the single hardest course I’ve ever played. Not because the course is bad, it’s actually great, but because just trying to find the first tee was like trying to pull teeth. I’ve never “felt” disdain before, but I experienced it at this course. The staff genuinely felt like they hated me I tried contacting them to express my bad experiencee. They have never contacted me back so obviously they don’t care.
First week open
Course just waking up from hibernation, needs work, lay out and views are great, staff are excellent, resort looks 5 star, can't wait to visit again.
Not great
Even given the very mild winter this course is terrible shape. Greens are half dead/rotted, any putt over 5 feet is going to take some much due to the dead spots that are half an inch lower than the rest of the green. Tee boxes are in shambles, some even have 4” tall grass and piles of dirt on them. Staff was great and the hotel is beautiful but the course is currently very rough.
Course is in great condition right now
The course requires accuracy especially off the tee. Conditions are great right now. Be sure the get parking validated at the front desk!
Great views and decent golf
Overall the course was challenging but still very enjoyable. The best part was the amazing views. The course did have some issues with dead grass and the greens were not in the best shape; however for the price compared to other courses in the area I feel it was a good value option. I will be playing here again.
Great place
Amazing views good pace and beautiful weather!
Course conditions need help but still fun
Course condition are a bit rough. Layout and scenic views are still worth playing the course. It's tough and on is on every hole. So bring extra balls.
