Not worth $50 as a retiree.

Original price on Golf Now was $32 got to the course and payed $50. Golf carts are from 1970’s barely go, backfires, missing windshields or large cracks. As a facility that gets money from the government from MWR (Moral, Welfare, Recreational) funds is a complete shame how the course is managed.

Pace

I loved the course but several walking foursomes could have let two of us who were riding play through. It slowed down our pace tremendously.

Stumpy Lake

1st green has some issues and tee boxes aren’t being cut often, probably to help them not burn out in dead of summer. Rest of course was in good shape. Greens were soft and slow after a heavy rain two days prior. Love the course layout and scenic setting! I booked another round for tomorrow.

Picked a bad time to play

Was a great first experience at this course, unfortunately the day before i played we had gotten a pretty decent amount of rain that caused some flooding on the course. Aside from the rain it was a really fun course to play and not overly challenging for a beginner like myself.

Classic PUBLIC course

Not much other than golf and golf. Small but stocked pro shop. Porta-potties for bathrooms while their revamping theirs. Gas carts will bring back the nostalgia from playing yesteryear. Course is a fun design and layout but nothing too challenging. Small greens and good fairways make for a great shot makers course. Great little chipping and short game practice area that could make the beginner or average player want to work to get better.
