nice course

I like this course, don't have to search for your balls as there is plenty of fairway, Riding to you tress you can just picture dinosaurs coming thru the brush as it has a Jurassic park feel to it. The greens are a little rough in places and some burn out grasses around. But overall a fun time was had.

Social Distancing

I was very upset that I was told I would have to share a cart or pay $5 to ride alone. They have 2 signs saying social distancing is strictly enforced, so why do I have to share a cart? The course itself has seen better days. Most of the greens had patches of weeds which is not very good when trying to put. I have played this course for 5 years and have never had staff members be a rude as the person and the pro shop desk and the the person assigning carts.

Good time

I booked this course knowing it had an aeration alert. I played other courses that have these alerts, and this by far was not so good. There was no reading the greens as too much sand taking your ball. That aside it was an interesting course with hillocks and good fairways. So overall it was a fun place to play.

This is a great course, I will definitely play here again. The greens had just been aerated, but you can tell they pride themselves on a well-maintained course as everything else was absolutely perfect.

Course Needs TLC

Played lat Sunday. Clubhouse entrance overhang falling apart. Crabgrass and fungus on most greens, Bare spots, and hardpan on fairways. Tee boxes chewed up. Cart paths are either cracked or broken up. Fallen tree limbs on the cart path. Bunkers are hard-packed. Not worth the price paid at $33. Owners need to put some money into this course. Friendly staff though.

Great Course

This course is really nice. Fairways are well taken care of and the layout is really nice. Most of the holes are fairly straight and hardly any water. The only problem we had today was the pace of play. We had a group of 4 in front us that wouldn't let us go past even though we met them on every tee box after the 9th. One guy would hit 3 balls almost every time. We were a group of 2 and had an older gentleman behind us that would be on the tee box right behind us every hole. The guys in front of us was holding up us, the single guy, a group of 3, another single player, and another group of 4. Outside of that I would highly recommend this course.

Drains well

The course was dry even after torrential rain showers the night before. Staff is always very welcoming and friendly. The greens are in need of desperate repair though. I will return, love the layout of the course.

COVID19 Victim

We were in the area on vacation and found the course on GolfNow, it was a good deal for the area at $33 cart included. They had signs showing dress code enforced, I had left my collared shirt at the house and when I explained they were kind enough to allow me to play in my tshirt. We loved the course layout, it was challenging and fun to play. The greens were in pretty rough shape, allot of bare spots on them. The fairways were in pretty good shape though. It was really cool playing beside the airport getting to see the planes up close come and go, only small planes in and out not big jets. The clubhouse was closed, likely due to the virus concerns. All in all I’d recommend the course, just know it is an older facility and could use some updates and TLC on the grounds. I’d say if it weren’t for COVID, it would likely be in better condition because you can tell it has been in good shape in the recent past.

Overall

Loved the uniqueness of the course, the fairway were very good! Was a bit disappointed in the some of the greens. Was a little concern about the entrance of the clubhouse until we got inside as the place was very professional set up and clean. Staff was very informative and pleasant!. I will be back

Hit It Straight

Challenging course cut through dense brush and forest. If you hit it beyond the rough into the woods, prepare to encounter some critters -- lizards, snakes, etc. The greens were in pretty good shape, but a few of them on the front nine had sprigs of crab grass.
Pace of play on the front was fast (1.5 hours), but we caught a slow foursome on the back that wouldn't let us play through.
The course also had some mild elevation changes which made the round more interesting.
