Rating 74.1

This is a well-conceived, challenging, yet playable course, with a good reputation among local golfers.

Water comes into play on quite a few holes. The fairways are relatively wide, but it will help to play your shot carefully. A few bunkers lurk in the fairways, ready to create trouble. There are also some greens that require well-placed shots over water from uneven lies. Overall, this is a well thought out, fun and thoroughly worthwhile course.

Peter Tufts, (the gentleman who designed the course), was the godson of Donald Ross and the Ross influence is obvious throughout.

efficiency is very low

This Seven Lakes Superintendent always tries to make the owners spend more money on the golf course, but the input-output efficiency is very low. He supports his favorite employees in the maintenance team. It is not surprising that he has been fired from three golf clubs in the past 10 years.

Golf now Price in range

Glad for the hot deal of Golfnow put this course at $60 on a Sunday. Had we paid $80 listed for non resident i would have been disappointed. Traveled from Ohio and the weather helped overlook some parts of the fairways.

This golf course is poorly managed

This golf course is poorly managed, the fairways lack grass, the bent greens look sick in hot weather. Worse still, the course is severely congested, it took me 5 and a half hours to play a round of golf, I will never come again

This course has great features that require good shotmaking

Really enjoyed the layout and challenge the course presented. The bermuda grass fairways were a bit rugged because of the time of the year. Greens were smooth and challenging. Will definitely play again and again.

Sunday Morning golf

Pace of play was smooth. We weren't waiting or being rushed from behind us. Some holes were a little wet in the fairway but overall course was a good shape especially being winter.

Overbooked but good condition and layout

My wife and I were on time but didn't get our cart on time, 40 minutes late. Very friendly starters and cart guys, not their fault at all. Course and greens were in great condition, somewhat challenging but worth it.

Great value. Remodeled bar/restaurant.
Food from kitchen was excellent!
