The reduced price compared to other resort courses reflects its condition. Great course to warmup your golf game or if your novice golfer.

The front needs a lot of love no grass on fairways the back 9 was in a lot better shape. It still could use some up keep. The greens were the best part of the course. The starter was a very nice person

Good value course

Overall the course is in good condition. Hole 1 and 10 were affected by a flood and are not repaired yet. However both of those greens were in good shape All other holes are in good shape as well as the greens.

We paid $49 for golf and cart which is a reasonable rate even with the two holes that are damaged.

I found the pro shop staff okay and the starter was grumpy.

Old tired course

This course has seen better times , it is not well kept . Fairways and tee boxes were in really bad condition, the greens were adequate. I would not recommend it for regular golfers looking for a nice experience. If you were new to golf and looking for some value then maybe otherwise pass on it .

Great value

Forgetting the first two holes (1 is ‘under repair’ and 2 is blah) the rest of the course was very enjoyable. Greens were (for the most part…a few blotches here and there) very good and rolled true. Fairways were (again, for the most part) in good condition. I enjoyed the layout and very much value for dollar spent (yes you could spend 3-10 times the amount for a nicer clubhouse, exceptional conditioning, range, etc) but for a snowbird who hadn’t swung a club for 3 months, this was perfect.

Course conditions were above par

Staff were friendly and helpful, they informed us of the issues with number 1 and 10 because of the storm. The rest of the course was in great condition and the greens rolled true. We would definitely come back because of the knowledgeable staff and the great layout.

The course was in decent shape. The greens were in better shape than the fairways, which made it enjoyable to putt . Fairways not so much. Lots of bare , sandy patches. Needed to move ball in fairways at times to give you a decent lie for a shot that should be rewarded for being in the fairway. Bunkers were inconsistent, with some with plenty of sand, and others pretty bare. Not all bunkers had rakes, which made it impossible to leave a clean trap for the next guy. Pace of play was OK , but only saw Marshall once for entire round. Staff friendly and helpful, but little done to keep pace moving. Overall good value, mainly because the greens were quite good. The rest of the conditions were just average.Still would recommend to play for the money.
