Overpriced and in Bad Shape

The layout was average at best. Some very goofy holes with bad layouts. Fairways were below average, the tee boxes were lacking grass. Greens were decent.

Staff was friendly and beers were cheap. $5 for 20 range balls and $10 for 40.

Worth $35-45 not $60

Not Good

Course wasn’t in good condition at this time. Fairways and sand traps were terrible. Bunkers were filled with mounds of sand that hadn’t been spread. Course layout was good but I would wait another month before I return to this course.

The WORST

This was the worst golf course I’ve ever been to. I cannot believe they charge $40. I played 4 holes and left because my irons were getting scratched on the rocky fairway. I’d like a refund please.

Enjoyable stop heading north

Played 9 on our way back home as it was a nice day and the course is close to I-95.

Very happy with the choice. We were a few minutes late for our tee time, but they let us play the back 9 instead so no waiting as we got to play our twosome alone.

It's still winter even though it was Spring temps, so I can' eval course conditions. Green were consistent and smooth and tee boxes were OK as well. Mostly, I enjoyed the layout as fair and with nice variety. For early in the season, it was a good course to practice on and my game got progressively better as well.

If I get the chance to play again in summer conditions, I'd definitely try.

Great when not crowded

I really enjoyed this track.
I went on a weekday and never really encountered people in front or behind which is always great. Onyl issue is sometimes the holes get narrow and fold back on each other, so very easy to end up in other fairways if you’re a shanker like me.

All in all really enjoyed the course, greens were primo, bunkers were even maintained and grass held up.

Just okay

Got there an hour early to check in and hit some range balls … range is kinda tore up. After, went to chip … chipping / putting green was okay. Originally the golf pro checked me in. After practicing I went in and the shop attendant was there. He was grumpy and didn’t hear a word I had to say about having already checking in and the pro telling me that he had me paired up with a twosome. Right at my tee time I asked the older, grumpy shop attendant what was going on and he argued that he didn’t check me in and he didn’t know what I was talking about. I explained that is because he was busy being a grump and didn’t listen to me when I tried explaining the first time. Ultimately, I just went out and started playing. Monday / Tuesday no hot dogs, food, service. Course was kinda chopped up and not well maintained, but it had some fun elevations. Overall, this course was average with a grumpy attendant who appeared to not care about the ppl paying to golf there.
