5.5 hour round on sunday at 12

Great course and conditions. Round was 5.5 hours on sunday at 12. Rangers do not enforce pace of play and course was packed. The course was so congrsted I couldn’t even see who was holding everyone up, probably 5+ groups ahead.

Guy inside pro shop told me it would be a 4.5 hour round, I laughed at him. Won’t ever play here again on the weekends in the afternoon.

Excellent course

Actually played with the superintendent. Course was in great condition, it had even rained the night before. Every hole has character and it's a difficult course. Play from the tips and your over 7,000 yards, so they have a tee for everyone. Greens in great condition, pure rolls. Excellent value and course, one of my favorites.

Turtle pace of play

The course design is great, maintenance was good, and price was good. The problem that ruined the round was a 5+ hour round.

The starter/ranger made us wait 5-10 minutes to start. Then he told us to keep up pace, because its a 4 hour round--great! Problem was that delays started on the 3rd hole and rangers were nowhere to be found.

Finally about halfway through a ranger came around and I let him know about the slow play. His response: "yeah, it's Friday so it's going to be a while". I said, "what happened to the 4 hr round? Can you tell them to speed up". He claimed he did. One thing is for sure, pace of play is NOT enforced. 5+ hour round ruined the day. Nothing was done to spees up play.

6 hour round

No rangers on the course, get ready for a 6 hour round. Pace of play is not enforced and therefore the course attracts hackers that play slow. Was stuck at the second hole behind 1 group teeing off, one waiting behind them, then us. Played through a couple of groups only to get stuck again behind a 2 some.

Maintenance was pretty good despite being a hackers course.

Scorched

The course is pretty narrow and underdeveloped; lots of forest. The design would make for decent play if it was maintained. Strange that the 9th hole does NOT lead you back to the clubhouse?

No rangers on the course?!

The course is bone dry. My 300 yard drives were rewarded with large bounces off the fairway into the woods, hardly any shots hit the fairway and stayed on.

Hit a green side bunker shot perfectly except that the ground was rock hard under 1/4" of sand and sent my ball twice the distance.

The greens appeared to be good, but a close look revealed many weeds growing along with the grass. Impossible to get consistent ball roll on the greens when they have weeds. Fast-slow-fast, impossible. Poor maintenance, poor greens.

My group experienced the same problems. We were disappointed with the course and will not return. For a course that charges $56 on Sunday, they must water the course.

The quality could easily improve with water and pesticides but that's up to them.

I'm shocked to read your review I played yesterday and the tee boxes definitely needed water and I agree the trees need to be trimmed but that being said. This course is not terrible at all. As a 6 handicap my advice to you would be to keep it in the fairway and lay up. Use your irons on this course.

Great course

Great course, great value. Not quite at an exceptional level but at a great level of 4 stars. Have to be fair to the superior courses out there.

Maintenance was great, greens in top shape, and layout of the course was good. Lots of hills and elevation changes so its a great workout if you walk. Good pro shop and restaurant, fair prices. and good looking cart hoes.

Decent course, terrible greens

Unfortunately the course is not up to par. First of all, it is very narrow with many areas of forest/undeveloped which is never nice. The fairways are in decent shape but the greens are terrible. They were hard as a rock and bone dry. Hit the greens on approach shots with a 60 degree wedge and it would bounce/roll right off. I never found a single ball mark the greens were so rock hard. Not an enjoyable round when you can't get on the green with a good shot. Putting was impossible as the ball would just roll off the other side. Terrible green maintenance.

The only saving grace of this golf course is that they offer a free lunch to tee times before 12! It's a quality lunch too, even includes beer. Great deal.

Poor Course

The clubhouse and facilities are great but the course conditions are not up to par. Weeds in the greens just cut the same length as the grass causing inconsistent ball roll. Weeds all over the fairway/rough as well. The greens also had long cut grass making ball roll inconsistent. Fairways had lots of hard dirt and not a lot of grass. Tee boxes are uneven creating awkward lies while teeing off. It's a decently designed golf course but the lack of maintenance makes it not a good experience. Would not recommend.

OK course

Overall an average golf course with some good course design. Some holes are long and challenging, others are normal. Good curves and elevation changes. Maintenance conditions were decent.

The price is too high and I was expecting a better value for the money spent. Conditions were fair but not worth $70, I think a fair value is $40.

Far below par

No rangers, pace of play not enforced. 5.5 hour round. Late tee off. Starter let a FIVE sum tee off ahead of us?! Tee boxes hardly had any grass to tee off of. Weeds, clovers, and dirt litter the fairway. Rocks in some sand traps. Some greens were nice and could be appreciated but most were in normal condition. Course is constructed way too close together. Tee boxes are very close to apposing greens. In one case, the tee box is less than 30 feet left of a par 3 green in which many golfers hit right into the tee box--dangerous. I was constantly worried about getting hit and had a few close calls. $70/player (with cart) is way too much. This course is worth $30 with cart at most. Very disappointed.

Way too long

Pace of play was terrible. The round took us 6.5 hours due to hold ups. Rangers were on the course but did not take action to speed up play. Bottlenecks occurred with 3 groups at one tee box waiting for the green to clear, while the next tee box was delayed as well.

Teed off 30 minutes late due to delays. My guess in that they place groups too closely together in an effort to maximize profits. The course then gets into a traffic jam.

Conditions were average to below average. Greens were OK at best.

Don't plan on playing here on Friday - Sunday unless you want a 6.5hr round.

Poor coniditions

The entire course was dry to the bone. I do not believe they have sprinkler systems. Greens were a joke; different types of grass with plenty of bumps and holes.

My advice for them is to step up their maintenance because in a lot of cases you are struggling to find green grass.

Ok

Not a very well maintained course. Short course as well. Definitely not worth what they charge you in the club house but I got it for $30 including cart from golfnow which was a fair price, only because the course isn't that great. Easy course.

Greens were airaited when I played and the greens were in terrible condition, barely puttable. But that didn't factor into my review.

Great value for this course. The course is very well maintained and staff is great. Wide fairways and beautiful slopes but still a moderate level of difficulty. Really excellent course, especially for the money.

Boring course but good value

The course was a great deal for the money spend and they maintain it very well. The only downside is that hole after hole, it is more or less the same. Most of the 18 holes consist of straight par 4s that are very similar to each other. On the positive side there are some nice par 3s over water, and a few dog legs.

Good course

The course was good, definitely a great value. Not a top of the line course but a good solid course that's definitely worth the price. The ranger on staff was very rude and yelled at the people we were partnered up with for driving on a par 3. He threatened to throw them off the course.
