Helped by rain

Much improved thanks to mother nature. Always enjoyed playing here,even off the hardpan. One wish would be for actual sand in the traps,and maybe weedeat a fringe around them..also, lost a couple balls in the first cut.

Much potential

The course is in need of some work. The greens are being aerated which was not advertised. The grounds crew was cutting the grass on one of the holes as we approached and we had to wait a few minutes for them to clear the green. Sand traps had not been attended to at all.
All that said, it is a fun layout and the staff is friendly. One of my favorite courses to play in the summer time when the price matches the quality.

This course could be great!!!

I’ve played this course a hand full of times and I see a steady decline in the course conditions. It’s a shame because it could be a beautiful course if they could turn it around. Then it would be really worth the cost of play.

Cow Pasture

It's like they just mowed down to the ground in the cowpasture and put up a sign to play golf. 25% of the greens had really no grass at all. Very little maintenance is done here!
