Great course go early

Amazing course that I drove one hour and thirty minutes to get to. When we were teeing off the starter said the carts had to be in by 7:24. For context sunset was 7:30 and we went off at 3:30. Stater did say that if we made it to the 18th hole by 7:24 he wouldn’t chase us and that we could finish. We did get to the tee box right at 7:24 but unfortunately the staff did not communicate and another member of the staff came out to hassle us. My playing partner who I had never met had an amazing drive and after the encounter he tanked the rest of the hole. If you pay 50$ to play at 3:30 just have a little grace and let people finish. Golf is expensive and rather than stress out the golfers with drama just pay the staff an extra 30 minutes it shouldn’t be that big a deal. Drama is not good for golf. Great course staff needs lessons on how to interact with customers

It was good for the deal

I got a GolfNow Hot Deal for half price. The course was good for that. They had recently done some work, so some sections of fairway were aerated and full of plugs and holes. The front nine greens were slow and the back nine greens were fast because of the same aeration issue. Aside from that, the course was fine. I'd recommend to a friend, but probably not at full price.

Aerated greens

Very wet conditions the morning after a rain storm and aerated greens were a challenge but not a hinderance.
Super friendly and helpful staff.

Nice track 4 hour Sunday round

Course was in excellent condition, greens were consistent if a little slow. First time playing there, difficult to reach the course but worth the effort.
As per other reviews, nice folks who work there. All around terrific experience.

Great Staff

Every person we encountered at the course was very friendly and helpful. So much so that it really stood out. People in pro shop, bartender, cart girl, and Starter.
