Great Value for a Great Course

I am a beginner at golf and had previously only played at a local Par 3 course before moving to a full 18 holes. Needless to say I was not very efficient or effective at playing this course, but that did not alter my opinion of the course in the slightest. The staff was very friendly and helpful from the bar to the pro shop attendants. The course was in excellent condition, especially the greens, and the location is great as well with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Overall, this course is an amazing value for the price!

The course is in great condition and pace of play was good. Nice wide fairways complemented by challenging greens. Putts are rolling a bit slow but true for the early Spring.

Amazing course with incredible conditions

This course is beautiful the front 9 is challenging with technical maneuvering and the back 9 will test you with very long Par 5s and 4s. The only issue was the rate of play. The course does not manage tee times well and you will be bunched up its groups in front of you and behind you and then the golf cart getting upset you are behind the pace of play.

Mr. Hatch

The course had just completed aerating the greens and fairways. It was a mess to play on. If we had known, players would have been prepared. Secondly, a slight discount would be appreciated.

Mr Hatch

Pace of play was just terrible. We had two groups of 5 in front of us. The groups were extremely slow. Why does the staff group 5 players?

I'd Recommend To Anyone

My group had a great time playing this course. The greens were rolling great, with a few pitch marks not repaired correctly. Our only complaint was that the mid-course snack bar was not open to reload our cooler and to refuel with some snack options. If would have known prior to teeing off, we would have better prepared initially at the clubhouse.

Thank you for your 4 star review! Unfortunately, since COVID we haven't had enough staff to service our snack shack.

To help with this, we do actively deliver onto the golf course anything from our menu or bar.

Next time that you are here, please call us and we will be happy to bring y'all whatever you might need!!
