Old school, fun layout

This course is an older school style muni looking course, but its small greens, many bunkers, and elevation changes around the green make it much more difficult that it looks on paper. Not sure why this place doesn't come up in the friend group rotation more, becase we always leave here happy with the round. Food and beer are really cheap, and the staff is nice.

Course was pretty difficult as many greens were small and elevated. Ground was soft so ball was constantly picking up mud. Bunkers were wet and hard with high lips adding to frustration, but the worst thing was our cart ran out of gas in the middle of the fairway on a he 8th hole. Pace of play was a little bit slow but acceptable. There were some bare spots in my the grass. Overall not bad for this time of year. Could not warm up as the range was closed.

Solid Course for February play

Greens were quick and tiny - not ideal for my first time playing the course but could become more familiar with more play. Course still browned-out for winter but I will play it again once it is more green. A solid local club.

5 somes should not be allowed on days when the tee sheet is full. I am not another course at the level of MCC that would allow a 5 some when the course is crowded.

Great Value

Been wanting to play this course for a while. Played on a warm winter day in February. Club house staff and starter were both very helpful and courteous. Driving range was a long cart ride from the clubhouse and there was zero grass to hit off of. Course layout is decent, but there are some very close holes together on the front nine. Greens are very small and very fast. Played as a single with a threesome. Probably the nicest group of guys of guys I have ever played with they were patient with my struggles on the first nine and encouraging. The price was a great value for a Saturday afternoon. I highly recommend this course for a fun round.

course setup frustrating

These greens are tough to play in good conditions. This was a cold wet day and I thought the pin placements were unnecessarily difficult on more than half the holes. Greens keeper must not have had any loving in quite a while.

I like the back nine

I come here just to play the back nine layout. I don't like most of the front nine greens which are very small. All greens in good shape. Driving range seems to be in the next county so I don't bother.

Beware the greens!

The course is nicely maintained, with straightforward layout and wide fairways. The front nine was designed by Donald Ross, so the greens are small and fast and treacherous. There are several parallel holes on the front nine, with players hitting errant shots into the wrong fairways. The staff that I encountered were fairly cold and detached. It wouldn’t hurt for them to be a little bit nicer.

Good day.

Very good conditions for January golf. After a frost delay the pace of play was consistently moving. Finished in three and a half hours. Greens were nice for the winter season, and fast. Fairways were dormant grass for this time of year. Various hole layouts, not just your up and back formations. Some shorter par threes mixed in. Recommend giving this course a go. Enjoyable.
