Course is in good shape.

Greens are running around 9.

Good condition considering the amount of rain lately.

Many reasons to stay away

1. Tee times are every 5 minutes - Pace of play is unbearably slow.

2. No Covid Protocols - Starter had a bandana (not a mask) around his neck greeting everyone who came to the course. Then he tried to have me get in cart with another single. When I said I wasn't comfortable with that, I was quoted about 'the Governor said....' In the shop I was told I could pay to have a single in a cart....another $65 (2 rounds of golf). Got my money back.

3. Staff - Rude to the point of questioning if they actually want people to golf there.

Thoroughly disappointed and I won't be going back.

I was NOT offered a $20 fee to ride as a single. I was told it would cost $65 (double the price I paid for the round). I don't know if the individual in the club house is unaware, but might be worth making sure all of your staff are aware.

Thank you for the feedback, Brian. While our indoor staff all wear masks, we do not require our outdoor staff to wear masks per current state protocols. We do have a $20 surcharge for single riders, as we want to make sure we have enough carts for everyone. We're sorry that our rules and protocols aren't to your liking and we hope you have a great week.

Great day

Course was in great shape, the best shape I’ve seen of any public course since the freeze! Fairways great. No dirt or mud on the greens. They rolled nice, but were slower than normal. But at least it was a green! People complain about slow play? Make an earlier tee time. This not a beginners course. It plays long and the greens are difficult. We played in less than 3 1/2 hours. Staff was great.

I would play here all the time but it’s pricey, but worth it.

***The range/practice facilities are not open from Tues 4pm until Wed 10am for weekly maintenance. I like to hit a bucket and putt but couldn’t as I had an early AM Wednesday tee time. A little disappointed because it doesn’t say on Golfnow, but it does say on their website. Will be back!

Excellent course with plenty of challenges in great condition. Careful with how you read the greens on this course as some proved to be an optical illusion. The ball would roll in ways that seemed to defy gravity!

Great course, painfully long round, cart fee issue

I was told that I had to share a cart, or pay a $20 fee on top of the cost of my 18 (which includes a half-cart) - this not reasonable. Course was in great shape, except the sand traps continue to be in unacceptable condition. The layout is great. There were no marshals driving the course, so it took us 4:40 to play 18 behind multiple unacceptably slow foursomes - way too long. The starter was outstanding. Inside staff was less than friendly. Cart person was great.

Great course

The course was in great condition considering the winter in TX this year. Greens were a bit slow. Biggest complaint was that there was no sand in the bunkers, just some gravel to tear up your wedges.
