Bad Course Management

Glad I didn't pay much. Had to skip holes because pace of play was all jacked up. Too many elderly men & women and 9 hole golfers. Need to start them on the back. I waited on most shots because lack of rangers to keep people moving. This really spoils golf when average skill players are mixed with beginners. Love the course and people are nice but needs better course management.

Great course for the money

My husband and I played this course for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a beautiful day and although the course was busy, the pace of play was quick. We will definitely be back.

No Marshall--pace of play ruined the round

The threesome in front of us had 4 open holes ahead of them. They would not let us play through. We just had to miss a hole and skip by them. There was a leaf blower that ruined our first 4 holes. It was so loud we could not talk of enjoy ourselves. Never going back.

GREED

They had it booked with 5 minute tee times, for our 1:35 tee time we had 7 groups ahead of us waiting to tee off. I played 7 of the 18 holes paid for before leaving out of frustration of how over booked the course was. Definitely not good look for my first time playing this course. I just moved in on the other side of the lake and was thinking of a membership this year. Don't see that happening now.

Tougher than needed

If the course was manicured perfectly it would be really challenging. Tight fairways, blind shots to fairway often, and rough just iff that is 3” deep and ball disappears. Spent time looking for balls that we were almost standing on. Waste areas have rocks and are unplayable. Add pine straw!!! Traps barren of sand but would otherwise be well placed and fun! Just not in love with the course maintenance.

Shouldn’t allow five-somes

Odd they would have a rule that only members can walk, seemingly for pace of play as I know they previously did away with all walkers, but then they allow a fivesome to go out as one of the first groups of the day. Pretty decent course. Just annoying to play a slow 18 behind 5.

Rough Time

This course challenges you in every aspect of your game. They are know for the speed of their greens. They are also know for some of the questionable pin placements. As I mentioned their greens are always fast and a missed four footer could end up being a three putt because of the location. However, I expect that but let’s talk about the rough in the fairway around the greens. It was brutal and unfair. There needed to me Marshalls in the fairway to help find your ball. I stuck a iron in the rough and I could not see the face. My group lost several balls just off the fairway but still in play most places. We had multiple eyes on the ball and still was unable to find it within the time limit. So I guess I’ll be back when I am 100 percent accurate from the tee.
