Half round before thunderstorm

The course is amazing. Staffs are very friendly. The marshal kindly warned me before the heavy storm comes. Even if I played 10 holes, the kindly refunded me half of paid price. The course is well maintained, but sometimes the rough are too thick to search the ball - it might lead slow play. Only my regret is I cannot finish the round. If i revisit the area, this course is must-play course. Trust me.

After the thunderstorm

The course was old fashioned hilly layouts. The staff is friendly and custmer oriented. Starting time was moved to regular hour(90 minutes earlier) in flexible manner with thunderstorm forecasting day even if I made twilight teetime (Of course, no charge). Yes, they came, sad. After the thunderstorm, no one could be seen on the course. However, I decided to continue playing because the green was OK without pond.At the fairway, I could not find any river on the surface. In other words, I found very few places to be wet and un-strokabke lie. It should be the result of their great maintenance!! Finally I made 18 holes round with 2.5 hour. It was a great deal!

Nothing special

I dare to say this course has no special feature. The clubhouse is old and golf cart is old. Though,course is well maintained, and having old fashioned style layout. The elder guys enjoyed the game from senior tee, the pace was not bad.

I do not know why I could not make score this course

Fair and good layout for average golfers. Because of my slump on approach shots, I made too much double-bogeys on this course. Price is reasonable, but I can say they do not have memorable holes. This is daily-used course.

Strategic jewel

After walking boulder course, I decided to make a 9 holes in rock course with twilight walking. The rock course is easy for walking compared to boulder course. The layout is tricky with waste bunker, mounted green and some water hazards. The layout is very beautiful and worth for travelling. The hole 13 and 14 is extremely blind layout, some golfers might feel the course is not fair. I totally recommend rock course layout is better than boulder for 220 driver golfers. Also 17th green with heart shaped is worth visiting.

Still under construction.

Boulder course is still under construction, though they have beautiful and challenging layouts. Some holes have surroundings of greens with nightmare, with evil layout and never stopping slope into the pound. The course is well maintained with smooth green, maintained fairway and thick rough. Actually, you will have the same 9 holes twice even you paid 18 holes. Some holes have long approach between the holes - especially hole 1&2 and replayed 10&11 - it takes around a mile. I anticipate to have a round after all construction is made, but I strongly advise that this is not walking facility.

Great Sunday afternoon.

As imagined, the course is great shape as it is. The day i visited had a big outing on golf channel, then the starting time was 15 minutes late. They offered me $20 discounted price, finally I understood why they mitigated discounted price. We could make 18 holes at last, after close to 5 hours to play. The green was nice and fairway is excellent condition as usual. Only regret was No 18 tee could not be used. I will be back in the near future.

Old style muni course

The course is typical municipal course. I remember some of the layouts. The rough is not treated right, then it leads to average golfers make slow pace round. The green was reasonable shape considering the weekend price, though more maintenance shall be needed for fairways. The last hole is island green.OK for practice round.

Incredible Course!!

I was impressed at the course condition. I played from black tee since I could not make paired. The course is very fair layout and reflect the score and quality of the shot. If this course is in an hour drive, I believe this course will be my favorite. Twilight $40 is reasonable. I might come back if I had a chance to visit the region again.

Slow pace

I cannnot understand some Korean foursome does not pass the twosome. The course needs marshalls to keep play smooth. The hole no 13 needs more explanation for the layout, if not, the hidden creek at the fairway is unfair hazard. The course is somewhat challenging. but overall image is not good.

Hmmm

After sluggish slump of the course, Augustine is back, The green was at amazing condition. Some of the fairways are now in the work for remedy, but I totally understand that the management company made great work to recover the condition. The condition is now 80 % back while old type of owner held this course. I will check it out in near future. 4.5 stars.

Great Municipal Course

The course layout is moderate and maintanance is perfect. The green is well maintained and rolled up, but some of the holes are not in good condition. The sand trap is needed to have more sand, technically and well allocated, then this will be the key hasard to hit good score. The front nice is in good shape and easy to warm-up, the back nine is more challenging. I love the cocept of the holes and facility (and reasonable price). For DC residents, this course might be one of the good experience, if you have different golf experience at the hilly circumstances.

Upper class course - kidding me??

Some of the holes are not playable condition. Especially, the fairway of no 8 and no 13 is maddy and no grass. as is my last visit. This is not maintenance problem, then it will be designing mistake. The green is fair but not excellent. It is not $100 value course.The layout is very challenging and some holes are beautiful, though sadly I will be never back even if hot deal offers me 30 bucks deal.

Holiday Golf

Holiday golf, paired up with local guy and convention participants. The match-up was very great and had a wonderful time to share. The course layout is good, but some of the holes are tricky. Hole 14 and 15 was a problem, cause I could not see any fairway which could make shot from non-muddy situation. I might be back if this course is not at orlando, howeer, more fascinating course could be seen in similar price in the city.

Great condition before amateur tournament

Only complain is that cart path only policy made it impossible to guess distance form the pin. The layout is tricky and slope makes updown, and contains lot of doglegs. I understand the course makes strict policy for amateur tournament next month, but little bit stress for first time golfers. The price is expensive if I pay regular price ($70), but $55 makes sense even if weekday deal. I played very badly in score, will be back to play in the near future.

Fair for the price

The layout is very great, however the pace of play could not bear under the weather above 90s. The green is super slow and it makes difficult to make two putts at green. The price is fair, but I emphasize hat this course is not ladies who could carry less than 120 yards.

Great venue

Great venue to make family golf in the afternoon. I played this course after 8 years lag, still remember some layouts of the holes. My son and wife enjoyed the course a lot and they requested to play here again. The course is interesting layout which contains reasonable up and down. The rough around the green was tricky, it often makes the ball in the sinking manner. I will be back in a couple of months.
