Sad news!

I was alarmed at how much the course had deteriorated over the years.

Old School Golf Fun

Course was in great shape, greens were reasonably fast and overall look of the layout was well maintained. Starters were very friendly and easy to work with. I played as a single and they paired me with a group. Carts in great shape. A few bare spots here and there but nothing major. I enjoyed playing a mature course without many of the tricks on newer courses.

Highly recommend this course

Played early morning with little to no wait time and actually got on the first tee a little early. Course was in excellent shape with the fairways as well as the greens were both very nice. Can not think of a negative thing during the round other than a couple wayward shots that had nothing to do with the round. Will definitely be back on our next trip!

Great round of golf

Pretty solid course for the money. Overall not a difficult course but fun to play. Staff was great - not much of the snack bar or other food was available when we played or would have been a bit better - but made it work

Needs some tender loving

Staff was fantastic, as was pace of play and the overall layout of the couse. Fairways, well, not good at all. Greens OK. Will be back next year, hopefully fairways have healed by then!

Dead course

The place is all but dead when it comes to service or amenities. Everything is closed except the guy taking your money.

The conditions range from soggy, wet ground to pine trees and pine cones and tree roots everywhere. The fairways and greens are in very good condition but only the center of the fairway. The greens are the slowest I’ve ever played.

If you hit anything to the edge of the fairway it’s probably going to be OB. The boundaries are very close because you’re basically playing in someone’s backyard.

It’s a very punitive course and it’s just not worth the time.
