Windy weather
Walked

Mother's Day Eve

I thought it would be crowded because it was the Saturday before Mother's Day but the surprise wind we got probably made golfers wait until Sunday to play. With that, it wasn't crowded but the course moved very slow. I wish they had rangers that managed pace of play because I was playing behind a very slow foursome of teenage boys that took 6 minutes each to tee off. The course is in great condition with the exception that the rough is cut like my backyard grass, a little too high for my liking but overall cared for and manicured very nicely. The staff is TOP NOTCH! I will play about 5 more rounds there this golf season.

What the heck happened

Used to be a nice course for a fair price. Now they’re charging $50 when there are literal trench holes in some of the greens! I wish I took a picture, I mean there were actual foot-deep holes on the green. I couldn’t believe my eyes. It’s like they just gave up for the year. This place used to be 30 with a cart on the weekends and it was in great shape. What the heck happened??? Don’t golf here

It’s in bits

The layout is actually quiet good but it’s in horrendous condition, it’s like a course that maintenance forgot about, it’s a field with flag poles!

Great course overall, some members of the staff are terribly rude and not very helpful.

Not worth the high price

Price is too high. Not worth the price they charge!! Rough is real rough no slight rough from fairway straight from fairway to extreme rough, a lot of massive divots and chunks in fairway. The main part is holes are designed too close for real high handicap golfers. Balls were hit near and close often too often for my comforts. For the price and terrible manicured grass i wouldn’t play here again!!
