Good practice course, but heads up on Wednesday mornings.

I’m regular here and I like this simple course that has a good chance for you to go solo and work on various aspects of short game and putting. It’s short enough that you can do a 3 club challenge (5i, 8i, Sw, Putter) which is pretty fun and makes it interesting. You could use a hybrid and wood, but don’t recommend a driver if you already hit 180 yards easy.

I will warn for any of those hot deals you see on Wednesday morning (around 830 am). There is a tourney group of men that come out who are all great, but are slow because of the foursomes and need of a cart. They are really nice and might let you pass but if it’s really backed up I would say start on hole 7 if it’s empty then work your way back to hole 1 or 2.

Pick up the pace people!

It’s tough to be critical when you’re playing all these short par 3’s because you expect to be playing behind beginners. But when the group ahead of you know they’re still learning and continue to hit 2-3 balls each when we are backed up 3 groups, it gets a little ridiculous.

Great Time for the $

Played here first time today. Played alone so pace was fast. Shorter course than expected but was good for short game practice. Good value!

Good place to practice

Good place to practice. Although $20 for a large bucket of balls seems a little expensive.

Course is Ok

Great for a nine hole. The day I went the pace of play was really slow. Not like that really matters. I would recommend if you are willing to practice with your wedges.

Excellent Short Game Practice Course

They have grass, mat, and Trackman driving ranges. Pull cart only, but it's a VERY short Par 3 -- I was teed off with my Sand Wedge a couple times -- but it's a great course to work on your irons/wedges. The staff was friendly. They have a short game practice area and a relatively big practice putting green.

Based on the skill level of the people around me (including me) this is genuinely a place to work on your game to try to improve. So if you're anxious about golfing in front of people, this is a good place to play without feeling judged.

Good for short game pratice

Course are usually very short range, but they made it interesting. Good 9hole course for practice sessions. There is no sheriff walking around managing the timing of each hole.

Condition of the courses are not well maintained. Mud, walking across water flowing bridge may damage your golf shoes and you need to becareful. No electric cart - only for disabled. Only manual pull cart as each hole is short.

Nice little course, no signage

Fun, cute little course. I actually Birdied TWO holes. My first ever Birdies!

Course layout was confusing. Several times, we weren't sure where to go to get to the next Tee. Need to improve signage.

Course was VERY wet/muddy in places (after recent rains). Bunkers were the worst I've ever experienced, but it was still fun.

Very affordable!
