Course Conditions are Back to TopShelf !!!!

New Superintendent has transformed the course in last 2.5 years.

If you haven't played recently, you are missing out.

Greens enlarged to original design, sprinkler system upgraded to single head control, drainage improvements translate to dry fast greens, trees removed to promote grass growth, fairways, rough, and aprons are perfect, and greens rolling super smooth/consistent. Add some natural areas on #2, #3, #6, #8, and #9 off tee boxes and you have private course conditions at resort course availability/pricing

Select tees carefully as natural areas force carrys on a few front nine tees. As always, back nine is long from blue tees (3469 yds).....don't be afraid to move up a set of tees for a more pleasant experience.

Head Professional Will Benton and staff are very friendly and accommodating.

After a few years of course in wrong direction, fear not it is revived

Greens took a beating over the winter

Played this course on day of opening. More than half the greens are FULL of winter hill. We are talking pure bare spots all over most of the greens. It will be atleast month or 2 before they start growing in.

Other than the greens, I have no complaints. They are doing some work on a couple tee boxes and has a temporary green on #10 that looks like it might be a while before green is back up and running.

I would recommend playing somewhere else

Sept. 2013 aerification of greens

Very nice course, but the greens are presently going through aeration, so don't plan on scoring particularly well, as it will be difficult to make putts outside of 5 feet. This is a real pretty course.
