Greens look great

The greens look good. Two fairways need some work, but still enjoyable.

I wish they would do cart path only for some the holes so it could recover quicker. Would play again and you can’t beat the value

A lot of fun, and a great price.

This course is a lot of fun and the staff is friendly.

I will say there are two holes that were a little bit rough previously and have made a complete turnaround.

Great tee boxes, greens, and fairways. Would play again

Needed a ranger

3 hours to play 9 holes. A completely clueless 3some backed up 3 other groups the entire time, which then grew to 5. Ranger could have fixed issue immediately.

nice folks but cruel fairways

positive aspects: the prize to play, greens in good conditions,, teeboxes acceptable, short distances, nice staff, nice players
negative aspects: the fairways don’t deserve that name - nearly no grass, lot of cravel, sand and weeds, pace of play at the beginning was very slow, later half acceptable, no toilets

Good practice course

It's a good practice course. No real bunkers or water hazards. Greens were in ok shape. Golf carts are in good shape. Pace of play is slow seems over booked. I will use it as a practice course and or quick round with a friend.

First Timer

I love this little course. It's a little confusing since the cart path it's as clear as it could be. The sign does not not say which hole you are going to, it an be very confusing for a first timer.
Smiley in the office is fantastic .
I will play here again.

Nice 9 hole facility

First the positives - the staff was extremely friendly and the cost to play was very affordable. The beverages and snacks were very well priced. The layout of the course was very forgiving yet challenging at times. The greens were in good condition considering the season and colder weather. The carts were clean and ran great.

The things that need improvement - Most of the Tee boxes were very chewed up with divots. Maybe add a bucket of sand on each Tee box. The pace of play was very slow and had to wait 7-10 minutes after every shot. It seemed as if the course was over booked because everyone was waiting and it killed the game play. The directions that were provided on the GN app was completely wrong and lead us in the wrong direction of the course. May need updated.

Over all good course and I will be a returning customer !

Great Public course for Beginners / Amateurs

18 handicap, love this 9 hole course as I think it’s a great value for beginners and most players. Real grass golf range with small and large buckets for 5/10$. 9/18 hole prices vary by season but are usually between 20-30$ w/ cart. Overall course is decently maintained and greens were better than most area of fairways. 2 par 3s, 2 par 5s, 5 par 4s. Fairly flat course with pins visible from tee box, occasional water to hit over or dogleg to go around.

No real clubhouse to speak of or bathrooms on the course itself but there is a bathroom indoors where you check in. Small trailer near putting green with basics drinks and snacks to check in and get going. No Marshall so pace of play has been hit and miss the few times I’ve went out. 4/5

Beginners Course

Kind of a wild west, no rules enforced feelingbat this course. Nearly all holes were straight down the middle with no real challenge. The players here fit the suit of it being a beginner's course. For anyone that shoots a 120 on 18 holes, I'd recommend they come here and learn to hit straight. For anyone under 100 on 18 holes, you should choose better than this. Also waited to tee off on each hole for groups in front. They were decent, just course too full. Pace of play - almost 3 hrs for 9 holes.
