Price did not match the quality
For a $100 round of golf you would expect the course to be in better shape. Most of the greens have giant dirt patches and were dead. Bunkers were for the most part poorly kept up. Played on better greens in march. Avoid this place and spend money elsewhere for a better experience.
Nice layout
The Layout of this Robert Trent Jones designed course was excellent. Nice views, sensible hole layout and no goofy connections.
We all noticed that the course is not cared for as well it should be for a premium course. The greens wee in bad shape and there are heavy weeds along green edges.
Great layout
As with most Robert Trent Jones designed courses, the layout is great. No weird holes or the like. It is in a beautiful setting in the hills.
The reason for the less than top rating is the condition of the course. Many of the greens had bad spots and the green edges were weed covered. It just seemed that for a very nice high quality course, it lacked care. Most of the sand traps were also in poor shape. We liked playing the course, our first time, and would likely go back.
Greens are in horrible shape
It’s sad that the owners cannot maintain this storied Robert Trent Jones course. Every green is covered with burned out patches, it looks like there has been a severe drought. Very disappointing.
Good resort course
The older lady working the pro shop counter did t look at us once while checking in. I got the impression Golf Now golfers bugged her. Front nine pace was great. Back nine was slow. Many greens had huge areas of dry rot. Some fairways had it too. Cantt take golf cart to load up clubs or unload. Nice looking holes.
Experience after 30 yrs
The course was in great shape, the greens were a little slow, neede mowing & rolling maybe a stint of 7. That was the only criticism I had. My recollection from 30 yrs ago the sand traps were white Gipson sand & were like flour trying to get out of after a vertical entry with the ball often buried. The traps were more traditional but were well maintained & consistent. Great course but a little tough to get too via Cty roads over hill & dale
Greens are in bad shape
Overall course was nice bet the greens are all half dead.
Maple helicopter seeds.
The only reason it got fair condition was there were maple helicopter seeds all over the greens and the fairways.
Beautiful scenery
The fairways were in great shape for April. The greens however suffered some winter kill and the tea boxes need a little repair. All in all a great day for golf.
