Just wanted to have fun...

A very playable course with a mix of challenging and easy holes. Forward pins are ideal for amateur hackers. Course layout has a large number of parallel opposing fairways without barriers, so expect frequent sharing on busy days. Even still, pace of play was an acceptable 4 1/2 hours on a beautiful and busy Sunday. UNLESS you happen to be in a foursome in front of a group of members/regulars/special guests who want to play in 3:45. After getting hit into 3 times and having them sic the marshall on us for taking too long on a cart path only hole, my fun was over. Avoid the weekends. This isn't the first time the self-anointed have spoiled a round for the guest duffers.

We really appreciate the feedback, Bill, and we're sorry to hear that you were rushed. We certainly never want our golfers to feel hounded when decent POP is adhered to. We will certainly look into this, but we hope you'll be back to play again anyway!

I can guaranty the 3rd ball into my group, if not the 2nd one, would have fast become a lost ball. LOL

Good Choice for a Hot Deal

Excellent muni course. The conditions were excellent, service was attentive, and the course was fun. What I really like is that the penalty for most errant shots is a punch out rather than a lost a ball and a drop. The fairways are generous and from the whites even a high handicapper has a shot at a few GIRs. Even though the course was busy, the pace was pretty good. Playing in a twosome, we rarely had to wait for more than a minute or two. The rack rate seems a little high for a municipal course, but if you can get on for a deal Take It.
