Nice course.

This is a very well kept course with real sand bunkers. It's tight and rewards golfers who can keep ball in the fairway (wiseass).

Pace of play

Great Course, they just booked too many teetimes with not enough space in between them. Looks like it’s all about the money. (Most Courses)No Marshall on the course.. People looking for their ball for more than 10 minutes!!!

Good tee time, weak body!

Joined 2 singles, Ruben and Amin, for 18 holes; not bad considering we started at 3pm. The course is nicely cared for. It's a tight course with ponds all around. We had fun.

Always A Fun Round

I've played this a few times. Great playing partners, excellent staff, good condition. Not sure why people play so slow or why they can't fix marks on green. I'm not a great player but I know enough to keep moving. My only complaint is they do not allow Senior County rate except before 7 and after 11am- even though County Card says rates apply before 7am and AFTER 9am on weekdays.

Snail’s pace

Played it on a Saturday and waited on every single tee box. Some par 3’s had 3 groups waiting on the tee. I would not recommend playing here on the weekend u less you are willing to dedicate your whole day.

Consistently Good Condition

Have played this course off and on for many years and I always find it in good condition. This course keeps you honest but is also very enjoyable to play. Staff are real professionals.
