Ehhh

Some pluses include decent greens and pretty cheap to play. Overall, course needs a lot of maintenance and weeding. Too many negatives and there are much better courses for a few more bucks

Never Again

Worst course I've played in SD by far. Never thought I'd play somewhere worse than Eagle Crest but this place is it. They did not even try to mow the fairways. Grass (weeds really) was nearly a foot deep in some places. Anywhere you can hit in the fairway and lose a ball cause it's too deep to find anything cannot charge $50 for a round. Never again. Go somewhere else until they start taking this seriously

Rainy Day Blues

We played on a Sunday, only two of us at our tee time. Minimal waiting at tee box. Course conditions could use some work, they have not been able to do maintenance because of the rain. We lost a couple of balls that were not OB just because the grass and weeds were so overgrown. Good greens though

The worse conditioned golf course ever!

There is not much to say, other then I couldn't even call it a cow pasture. Because cows need grass! Disgusting, don't waste your time or money!

Disappointed

At $19 to play an 18 hole course looked interesting to me on the internet. Paying another $25 for a cart made it much less attractive. No way I would walk that course. Played as a single in about two hours. Very few other golfers. Course so poorly maintained I really could not appreciate the architect design.

Dissapointed, expensive for low quality

Honest Review

Tee Box's- were mud, messy, untamed, bald.
Fairways- debris covered, untamed, not well kept, a lot of different types of grass in fairways, very messy, lots of bald spots, dirt/mud.
Bunkers- Cement
Greens- ok, bald spots in few holes.

I'd like to try this course again if prices decrease. Online photos are not at all how course looks.

Very disappointed

I’ve played here many times over the years and it was always one of my favorite courses. Reasonably maintained and fun layout. However since the pandemic they have gone downhill with maintaining the course. And most infuriating is they charge $25 now for a cart shared by two golfers. That’s outrageous! Pretty much doubles the hot deals price. For years the cart was included. I doubt I’ll be back.

Hardly a golf course

Pretty good deals for drinks but this was the worst golf course I’ve ever played. I couldn’t find the first tee. The layout is odd, some holes are pretty solid others are just terrible.

Pleasantly Surprised

We played it with low expectations, and were pleasantly surprised. Kind of a quirky course, and hackers abound. My kind of place honestly. Very forgiving, but expect challenging lies. A guy we got paired up with hit a nice 3-wood shot that nailed a squirrel in the fairway, knocking him out (or just still) for about 45 secs, before scampering away. The ball was deflected into a bunker and he bogeyed the hole. The point is, this kind of thing will happen at this course on the daily.
