Work in progress

They are working to get fairways improved but the greens are like asphalt. For the money worth playing. Many teenagers/young adults play this course with disregard for taking the time to enjoy the game and care for the course. I see at a lot of courses people driving carts on the greens.

Bang for the tees

Have played the course a few times. Very friendly staff and good restaurant. Course wise, I don’t know if it’s the time of season but the greens were in pretty rough shape. A good chunk had an invasion of another grass and weeds. A pretty good variation with the holes throughout the course. Definitely not very repetitive. Some home owners can be in a mood.

BAD shape

They need to close this course and build more houses or take a lot more care of the property
I don’t think they are doing anything to fix the course it’s a good horse pasture.

Grass

My only complaint is that the fairways need cutting, otherwise it’s okay. I will be back!

Great Layout, Very poor conditions

Easy check in and that was the best part of my round. The tee boxes are trash as well as the fairways. There were a couple decent greens but most were in poor shape. The course layout was impressive. They should close the course for a few months and get it back in shape. I left after the 13th. Tee box was backed up 2 groups.

No grass on greens

No soft drink or candy bars or anything in the proshop or restaurant. Not been taken care of at all. Worst course conditions I've ever played at. We won't go back there.

Beautiful Layout - appears on "hard times"

This course has the potential to be a really great track. Many of the holes could be stunning among the mature trees. It is fairly flat so it could be walkable. On the con side, the tees, fairways and greens, well, it would be charitable to call them sparse. The greens fee was quite a bargain. The staff, one nice lady, Gay, was up front that the course struggles financially and the conditions reflect it. On the other hand, it is golf, and for the price, my partner and I might well play it again, if only for imagining how it could be and to enjoy the overall design.

Amazing layout but greens/fairways/tees need TLC

My son and I played 9 holes just before a storm rolled through - the front nine had an amazing layout with incredibly tight, tree-lined fairways. The trees were ancient and gorgeous, the green complexes well-designed, and it was obvious that this course was once first-class. Now, the greens are very bumpy, the fairways and tees are sparse, but the course is still very enjoyable and playable as-is. At $12/player/nine holes, this sure seems like a great value.
