Beware the greens!

The course is nicely maintained, with straightforward layout and wide fairways. The front nine was designed by Donald Ross, so the greens are small and fast and treacherous. There are several parallel holes on the front nine, with players hitting errant shots into the wrong fairways. The staff that I encountered were fairly cold and detached. It wouldn’t hurt for them to be a little bit nicer.

Good day.

Very good conditions for January golf. After a frost delay the pace of play was consistently moving. Finished in three and a half hours. Greens were nice for the winter season, and fast. Fairways were dormant grass for this time of year. Various hole layouts, not just your up and back formations. Some shorter par threes mixed in. Recommend giving this course a go. Enjoyable.

Super-fast greens

Course was in great shape. Greens were extremely fast. I lost 4-5 strokes due to approaches running thru the greens, and some three putts due to inability to stop putts on undulating greens. This is absolutely normal here, but I don’t play here enough to “know” the greens on each hole (and adapt accordingly). Frustrating, but it is what it is. Still, all in all, a very enjoyable round, as usual. Recommended!

Good Value

Yesterday was the first time I played the course and it’s a good value. Relaxed environment, challenging course with the front 9 a different layout than the back 9 at a good price. The greens were fast and there were a lot of leaves on some of the holes. I will most likely play again.

FAST GREENS THAT ARE MEAN!

Great track. Don't know if they can get the greens any faster. True to the roll just super fast and hard!. Love the course will be back soon. Highly recommend. Driving range is a great distance from the proshop. Suggest being there an hour early if you want to warm up.

What a track! Fast and thick!

These greens were the second fastest I've ever been on. I've been playing for 35 years and the greens were fast and true. The rough is a bit thick for this time of year. If you stay in the fairway and hit the greens scores can be made. This course asks the player to move the ball both directions. It is a test of skill. We enjoyed our round but the greens, rough and leaves made for a long day for the group in front of us. Will be back very soon!

Slowest Round Ever

Played as a single teeing off around 1:30pm and couldn’t finish before the 7pm deadline for carts to be returned. Literally waited between 5-10 mins between every shot because it was so backed up. Staff was great and course was in good shape for the cost. Probably would play again if it wasn’t for the pace of play.

Pace of play

Pace of play was horrible. Not sure if course keeps getting overbooked but I've been here atleast 5 times and always waiting. My tee time started at 3 30 and we were told to leave at 6 30 and we don't get a rain check. We only got to finish 12 holes. Atleast give me money back.
