Golf vacation

Been coming down here for years. Love this course. Overall course was in pretty good shape. Greens were bumpy and terribly slow, compared to what they used to be. Not impressed. Will probably come back and play again sometime, when im back down here, in hopes that they have the greens in better shape then they are now. We got through the round in good time. Pace was good. Just not to impressed with the greens. Good luck enjoy ur round.

Solid course but a bit pricey for conditions and amenities

No major issues with pace of play, found the driving range and putting green pretty underwhelming for a course charging $120+. Most of the course was in good conditions except a few tee boxes and some fairway low points were quite muddy even 2+ days after rain.

Overall just ok

Course conditions were above average, off course amenities were below average. Not worthy of charging $120 for a tee time.

Beautiful and difficult course

This is a beautiful course with a good layout. It is very difficult because of water on 16 holes. It also has maybe 40 sand traps. But they have various tee levels which allow the player to choose a tee that would be challenging and still fun. I chose tee 2 which is pretty standard white tee. It is not terribly long but you must be accurate with your yee shot and approach. They also included a small bag of range balls to use on the driving range which is very close to the first tee. That was a nice touch. They also provided me with a course map that indicated the yardage from the tee boxes to the 150 yard marker. That was very helpful and also a nice touch. Would certainly recommend this to anyone, although the cost is higher than any course I have played previously.

Great course!

Everything was great but greens haven’t quite healed from aeration. I suspect they will be fine in a couple more weeks.

Dumb struck

My best friend and I decided on this course for our vacation tee time and it did not disappoint. Hard to pick what made it the best from the great staff, the beautiful course lay out, or the amenities given included in your price.

Underwhelming to say the least

Overall the conditions were extremely average and more resembled a $40 course. The layout was cool, but the clubhouse is old and the attendant was not friendly. Divots and sand were everywhere and almost all the holes were punched improperly. I will not be back.
