Good course, slow play

Loved the course layout; fair but you had to pick your spots. Course in good condition, but could have used a little more watering. Lots of ball marks on greens where rude golfers didn’t repair.

So slow; 3 hours to play 12 holes. Had to finish in the dark with the sprinklers on.

Very friendly staff, but courses (2) get too much play. Over 400 golfers per day on the two courses.

Fun course, and would play again if you can guarantee under 4 hours to finish, not 4:45 hours

Best in the Valley for the Money

The Resort Course is Always in great shape. The views are outstanding. The layout is excellent and the course couldn't be in better shape. I have 1 complaint. The driving range is always in terrible condition. No Grass

Back 9 More Challenging

The course was fair and challenging from the tips. I enjoyed the round and found the back nine to be very challenging from the Tips. Add the wind and it was very enjoyable. I would definitely play again.

Great Conditions

Course was in wonderful shape. Some funky holes and some really pretty and challenging holes. Dirty cart and grumpy starter were the only downsides to the experience. Oh and the sewer smell from the neighboring treatment plant. But that said I would go back.
