Worst course I've ever played

Course was in very poor condition. Pace of play was terrible as we had to wait on every shot. All greens were in bad shape.

Course needs time and water to improve playing conditions. Especially the greens!

Get what you pay for.

Good value. If the greens were in good shape, I would be out there every week. No two holes are the same. Built on top of sand dunes, so lots of sand in the fairways. Opportunities to play lots of different shots.

Great price point

When I played at 1:00 pm the course was empty! If you need a place to consistently play and get better at your game this is ideal. The course conditions are mediocre. Some tee boxes are more sand boxes and the greens are patchy and needed be aerated. If you can tolerate these flaws, you’ll find yourself at a course with great location, extremely hilly fairways, and a nice staff.

Ok course

Great layout but poor course Maintenance. Some of the greens in rough shape, most fairways also not in good shape. For the money it’s a good course to go to. Staff was great!

traveling thru

The course was in need of work. Some parts washed out by water, no grass in fairways at some points. Greens hard to judge. Some grass long, some short, etc. Could be a nice course if it had some TLC.

Course needs work

Greens were in terrible condition! Fairways were in bad condition as well. Staff was not friendly. No food available due to a later event which would have been nice to know when I booked the tee time.

Terrible conditions

The fairways looks like bunkers in most cases. The greens looked like bunkers with more sand than grass. The bunkers actually have Grass and weeds growing in them. But,vtge greens were the worst. Forget putting normally.

Lemme get a refund!!!

It’s sad what has happened to this course. The guy with the worst yard in your neighborhood can now proudly say he has golf course grass. I’m certain this place hasn’t been watered all summer or it caught the Rona. Half the greens were unplayable and had so much sand on them the ball made a sand splash. But for real .....I would like a refund I’m pretty sure I earned it. Oh and our golf cart topped out at 6mph. I tried to post some pictures but it wouldn’t let me.

What happened to this place?

One of the most jacked up courses I’ve ever played. I haven’t played here in years and was completely shocked by the condition this course
is in. Half of the greens were unplayable and the fairways looked like they haven’t seen water in a month.

Not worth it

Greens were in terrible shape, so bad in fact they had one hole staged in the middle of the fairway. They had food options but half of them weren’t ready even though it was lunch time. Save your money and go play somewhere else.

Absolute dump

Worse course I've ever played. An absolute dump. You'd have a better experience finding a cow pasture.

NEEDS HELP

This course needs lots of help. The course layout is great and fun. You can score on the back 9. Front 9 has 3 par 5's and 2 of them are back to back holes. 4th hole has the green in the middle of the fairway b/c the normal green is gone. The "fairway green" is just that a flag stick in the fairway, the grass hasn't been cut down at all so you can' putt. Back 9 is in better shape than front. Last several greens are in good shape. However the fairway on 15 is the worst fairway I have ever seen. So much sand it's hard to find a white ball.

Hopefully they find a way to get some money into this course b/c it can be good.
