Fun course to play
The course was fun to play. Lots of trees and some hard dog legs. Choose your clubs wisely. Keep your driver in the bag for a few holes. Even a par 5.
The grass was a little scarce in many places and thr fairways need some work. But I would play there again. It was fun.
Nice course
Nice course, greens were perfect but small,fairways need so.e rain
Great Layout
I played in September and the greens were absolutely fabulous! The fairways were a little baked out but overall a great course. The par 3’s are lengthy which I liked. I would highly recommend playing this course!!!
Course needs some water. Very dry and high roughs.
Not what I remembered
Course didn’t seem the same as it had in the past as far as conditions. Was glad to get on at a hot deal and discount on golf pass so for what I paid it was fine.
Wonderful Local Course
All-in-all this course is one of the best around this area. Despite a few fairways that have been damaged and are in need of repairs they have little affect on the actual play. This is the only course locally I've visually been able to tell they are putting money into the course. The health of the course has improved drastically over the last couple years. Par 3 tee boxes could use some love though — perhaps alternate boxes. The staff are friendly and the overall vibe of the course is loose and family friendly.
Better than most
course, was in great shape. The Pace of play was excellent 3 hours, 35 minutes
Does not drain well! Holds water!
Grass needs to be mowed!
And the clubhouse should be updated
Greens in great shape
Greens in great shape fairways where in fair condition. Course was wet from all the rain so carts had to stay on the paths which meant more walking and slower pace of play.Good day was had by all. Note:19th hole is closed on Mondays so plan on a local off site watering hole.
Nice local course
Very relaxed atmosphere and reasonable pricing. Not a top PGA course but a great local place to golf. Staff always friendly and will work you in if early openings to tee times are available. The driving range could use some improvement thou.
Nice course!
Interesting mix for course management. Greens were pretty much flat and in good shape. Ball rolled well. Different feel between front and back nine. I enjoyed it.
Conditions are improving
Green were better than the previous week but still very hairy and dirty with debris. Tee boxes are toast with lots of divots that need addressed. Pace was horrible with a group of 5 very slow foursomes. Skipped a couple holes to limit the insanity.
Rough early season conditions
The fairways were undefined throughout and there was plenty of bare ground both in the fairways and a step or two into what was believed to be the rough. Traps are hard with firm sand. Greens were fuzzy and unpredictable with an early aerate and top dressing that just hasn't grown in yet. Greens were very firm with alot of bounce. I would think the course conditions contribute to about 5 extra strokes
