Challenging Course

I was very impressed and intimidated by the course! The course is very clean with outstanding fairways, and very long with the 4 and 5 pars! I sincerely enjoyed playing on this course for the first time! I can’t wait for o go back and play again! The carts were equipped with overhead cover to protect your clubs from the rain!!! The bar and grill was outstanding, clean and friendly staff!

Enjoyed the day

Started just before noon, weather was good for June. Course played fair if you had a game. Not a place for high handicappers…. trouble everywhere. A couple of quirky holes, but being it was my first time here, I would play a bit differently. Would play again.

Good golfing but…..

Love this golf course and play it often. Played on Saturday, and the crew working closed down the golf course BEFORE 7 PM. We decided to play on as we were going to pay for nine more holes(at 6:30), and the person working drove up and got angry at us for playing more. During the week you can play till sunset, so not sure why this would be different. The staff basically said they wanted to go home. As we were leaving, the same staff member made a rude comment as we passed. I get people want to go home, but the manner and attitude in which they treated their customers was very poor. Planning to notify the owner.

Haven’t decided if I will play there again as this is mainly due to specific workers there.

Perfect greens...no more?

This course has long been a favorite to many of people in the area. Usually priced appropriately, a good amount of difficulty for your decent weekend player (not for hacks). However, the once praised greens were lacking this time. They were plenty fast. Almost too fast. But the greens that used to putt so true were marred by unexplainable breaks and wiggling lines. They were very difficult to read and trust for this round. Hopefully they will come back despite the high amount of traffic this course gets. This round: 4 hours 50 minutes. OUCH!

Great experience

The course was in perfect shape except for the fairway bunkers they are working on. It looks like they are turning them into tall grass bunkers which will be very difficult to hit out of. Everything was fantastic from the starter to having beverage girls out going around on a Wednesday, which is very rare.

Best Greens in Town

The course is in fantastic shape, and the greens are smooth and fast. They are still upgrading some of the bunkers, and once they’re finished with that this course will be amazing.
