Nice public course

Very friendly staff and actually got off before my tee time. Played in 4:15 and had to wait in 3 holes. Greens are PERFECT. They are fast and true. Fairways are ok a few bare spots but overall good.

Really good course for all levels

1st time playing this course. Very friendly staff. Got to course early and starter got me off early as requested. Good tee boxes - markers in 1 side only allowing use of full box. Fairways perfect. Greens are undulating and quick not really fast which makes them good for all types of golfers. Played in 3:50. Beverage cart came by 3 times. Will definitely return soon. Thanks for a great day

Great Course - Great Staff

This was the 1st time I have ever played an upscale course in less than 4 hours. It was perfect. Regardless of the previous weeks rain the course was in exceptional condition. The greens are FAST.

The staff was friendly to a point of making you feel like a member of a private club.

Will definitely return

Pace of play is a never ending battle for many popular courses. Fortunately, with 27 holes, we can often find a way around traffic jams, but sometimes those 5 hour rounds happen. I'd suggest trying to visit in quieter times of the week, but know that is also a challenge for many people.

Very slow - 6 hr round

Great course - perfect conditions - greens slow compared to normal - south course had a tournament and so the north was packed and even though I saw and spoke to 2 marshals the pace of play was terrible. When I arrived at the 11th hole there were 2 groups waiting to tee off and I had already been on the course for 3 hours. I would recommend calling before playing to be sure there is no tournament on either course as this will definitely mean a VERY long day on the course you are on.

Tee time LATE

Tee time for 12:53, actually got off at 1:20 due to small tournament earlier in the morning - poor starter organisation and communication.

Thank you for the nice comments "gdnc". We agree the course is in fantastic shape right now. The dry weather hasn't affected us at all with plenty of water available. Hope to see you back at the club again soon!

Short Course

Good conditions
Friendly staff
Moderate difficulty
BUT!!!! Marshalls should take more active roll in keeping pace of play up. It took just over 4:30 hrs to play a short course - my opinion it should have taken 4:00 or less.

Fun day - Nice course

The staff were very friendly and efficient. Teed off on time, and finished in 4:15. Beverage cart came by several times over the 18 holes. Conditions were good but there were 2 greens that were under repair on the edges. Will play again.

Needs conditioning

I've played this course over the last several years and I found this year the course needs some attention.

The greens were spotty and the fairways were in need of overseeding as there were frequent bare spots.
