Best Father's Day Round

This course is challenging enough, but the weather made it more. Even with all the rain delays, this was one of the most enjoyable rounds. The course is very well maintained and the staff are super enjoyable. 5 stars

Fire the Greens Keeper

Great layout and friendly folks. It’s a fun track and not terribly difficult.

The greens are in rough shape. They aerated a month ago and you can still see punch marks everywhere. Looks like they did not use enough sand and clearly have not been rolled in some time. The back nine is better but your ball is still bouncing on all but two holes. I would recommend this course. No one can see your reviews but only stars. That’s weak.

Coach Hank

The staff is super friendly. The fairways were nice except for a few spots. The greens rolled nice! They do have a weed problem on many of the greens. Overall the course was worth the money!

Slow play

We were at twosome that played the first nine in an hour and a half, made the turn and there were three groups on number 10. Took us 2 1/2 hours to play the back. Starter was very friendly and nice. Pro shop staff were not friendly at all. Greens were OK. Very slow. For the money, it was worth it.

Slow

Greens were super slow, and pace of play was not monitored at all. Waited for atleast 5 mins on every tee box and greens to clear. Course was in decent shape though, just needed to cut the greens down to up the speed.

The links

The golf course itself was very challenging. If you’re looking for a course with beautiful views and a lot of water - this is the one. I booked during a few weeks after their aeration period was supposed to be over yet the greens still weren’t grown in. A couple holes had water leaks and so tee boxes were moved up which wasn’t an issue. I would definitely come back once greens were grown in and water issue fixed.
