Windy weather
Used cart

Warm and Windy

Par 70 short course. Greens were well maintained but too many leaves on the course. Lost four balls on the first four holes. More than made up for it on the 7th ( we started on the 10th) when a resident beckoned me to his property and gave me a plastic bag with 20 balls. I was very appreciative but also realized that clearly I was not the only one losing balls on this course.

I would return during warmer weather

Please dont close

Had a great time playing this course for the first time in years. It would be a shame to close with all the improvements that have taken place.

Convenient

It's fun to play but you will be searching for your ball more than you would on other courses. I would recommend this course to anyone, just play the back 9 twice. The front 9 needs a lot of love

Best bang for your Buck! Hurry

Greens were in great shape for the time of year, played as a single early Saturday morning, staff was very friendly but said the course will be closing permanently in September. Course slightly flat with small t boxes and lots of noise from Jets flying over, but I didn't mind for the price and great nature views. Overall, a fun, family friendly and relatively easy course to play. Hurry and book a t time before it closes for good!

So Many Leaves!

Don't get attached to your golf ball this time of year! There were so many leaves that even your good shot often wound up a lost ball. But, the greens were in great shape!
