Get what you pay for

Less expensive but for a reason. The driving range was terrible, no good grass to hit off of. The greens were slow and didn't roll true at all. Wasn't much for views but if you Wanne golf without paying a lot come here

Great course. Wonderful views

We really enjoyed our game. Course is in great shape.

Only con was the group holding up everyone on every hole. Taking selfies after each hole they played. 3 holes open in front of them - this was the entire back nine. Could have used a Marshall to push them along.

Shout out to the staff and the drink cart fella. Excellent service.

Good condition and affordable place to play

We lived on the third hole green for 3 weeks. So golfing here was like playing in your backyard.

This course was in better shape than other that were charging twice as much.

Nice layout, forgiving enough.

Lots of wide fairways. But greens protected by bunkers.

Great course with beautiful views. Course was in great shape and would love to play it again on a return visit. Bring balls or expect to pay $12 a sleeve for Pinnicles and Volviks.

Good Day for Golf

The course was ready and I was ready. Great views on a cloudless morning. Staff was very helpful and friendly. After golf refreshments were delicious. Parking was ample. Watch for nene geese.
