Compared to last year the course condition was much improved and repaired from the flood of past years! Great job!! However, we do miss the good deal of past years of food and drink before the round and the two drinks after the round!!

Great value

Excellent driving range, fairways, greens and bunkers. For a course that gets a lot of play, this is in great shape and offers excellent value. Loved the par 3’s, for risk and reward. Pace was at 4hrs 15 minutes.

Great course … BUT

The Players Course is one of my favourites in the area. It’s a great layout with a lot of variety and challenge. But at $275 I expect AAA conditions and course maintenance and that’s not the case right now. Weeds and uneven clumps of grass around the fairways and greens aren’t just unsightly but actually impact play (the back of the 17th green was particularly bad). Great and friendly staff, and nice amenities, are certainly appreciated but ultimately it’s all about the course and I was disappointed given the price.

Great views

We enjoy the course cause it has good layout and conditions are very good.

We wait until we get a discounted rate to book and easy to finish with a later tee time.

We will be back.
