Staff was very nice. Not too crowded. Fast pace of play. Course conditions only okay.
Ok course for the locals
I was very disappointed in the condition of the course. I even thought about the original owner (who built the first 9 holes) and how he’d be embarrassed at the condition of the course. The fairways needed cut, greens were burnt and beat up, rough grass needed to be cut. It was nearly impossible to find your ball if you weren’t in the fairway. I regretted driving the hour from my house to play it. The course needs a lot of work and it could be great if they cared about it. I do not recommend the course at this time.
Decent course and excellent food amenities
It was hot and dry, so tees and most fairways were extremely hard.
The back 9 for some reason was better. Greens were in decent shape as these are watered.
I was able to get a fantastic deal through Golfnow and we had a great time. Hopefully they get some water on those tees and fairways soon.
Took 3 1/2 hours to play 9 holes. Paid for 18 but left after 9. No ranger so players were dropping balls after bad shots and too much talking o. The tee boxes when they could have hot. Played this course for many years but first time I’ve ever been disappointed ☹️.
Beginning the new spring season I did not expect it to be perfect
The course as a whole was good. The greens were fertilized with a crystal type, which when the ball ran over it you heard a click. It was not pretty to watch the ball change course, so putting was bad.
Nice course!
Course was in good shape with this time of year, only complaint was greens were very slow. Spoke with a ground screw guy and he said they were going to mow for the first time next week. Can’t wait to play it when the greens are faster. Front side has more water. Good challenge.

For the price you pay, you get every amount of your money spent out on the course. The greens are pure along with some beautiful par 3s over the water. The fairways need to be cut down a little bit but causes little to no problems other than visuals. If you are wanting to play a course that gives you good bang for your buck this is a great option.
Great bang for your buck
A nice coarse with very open tee times for any beginner or intermediate player
