Great value

They have undergone a true course and amenities change. I really enjoy the staff friendliness. The course is way better than it was in the past. If you played here in the past and were disappointed with your experience, I would try it again.

Pleasantly Surprised

A lot better than it was a year ago, they've made massive improvements. The course was in great condition and the pace of play was good. Years ago I used to only golf here as a last resort, but now I'll be adding it to my rotation.

Poor customer experience concern by management

We only finished 10 holes in 3 hours. Left the coarse because the back 9 was more backed up than the front. Called office after leaving due to time restraint, manager was “shocked” to hear my experience and there was nothing that she could do. No partial refund or option to come back later to play back nine. 🤮

Shorecliffs Big Changes

Really enjoyed my round. Haven't played there for a few months, last time around it wasn't a very fun, this time around however much much better. Thing is the course is a few weeks away from the changes that have been years in the making. Once they get the permission to open the new Canyon Hole the course will be flipping the front and back nines around. This should make for a very different experience. As it was, the greens were in great shape and the fairways were pristine. I have a time scheduled for 4/9 and am looking forward to the round.

Dont know who wrote all these raving reviews

Dont know whos writing these reviews, for the price this place is not worth it, a par 69 and under 6000 yards, and horrible construction. Places marked off in the middle of fairways if the fairways themselves arent closed

For the value it’s great. The course is under construction so some of the holes are a little wacky. Views and elevation are great too.

Really good for the money

I have played there many times before the sale of the driving range and the course was, excuse me for saying so, a goat ranch, not good. I have now played there many times during the construction of the new clubhouse and remodeling of the course. It is now almost complete and I will be sad when its done because word will get out it is a good track with great greens and is in great condition. If you have not played there in a while try it out and you will be amazed.
