Greens much improved

I have played this course over 5 years and the greens are in the best condition I have seen. They have done many improvements and I applaud their good work. A few greens still have small spots most are near perfect. They have cleared fairway foliage and repaired irrigation systems that might help during the summer months.

Not bad course, but not great.

Greens were ok but fairways left a lot to be desired. We had to play the front nine twice as they were overseeding the back mine.

A place to practice, but not serious play

The course needs a lot of work, so I would only go to practice without paying much money

Bad

This course gets worse everytime I play it. It’s as if we’re playing in a farm field. The fairways are all weeds the greens, wait there seems to be no greens.
Don’t waste your money or time playing. The pace of play was good since no one was playing it.

Not getting better with time!

Considering the condition of the course when I this week, it appears that it has gone downhill some. A bit disappointing, considering the weather and the opportunities for improvement. The biggest weakness is seen on the greens with a big number of bare spots. The pace of play was miserable. I started behind a group of five who never allowed me to pass. we waited on every Teebox, and in every fairway for them to complete their shots.

We were low on staff last week due to illness and vacations, there was one grounds keeper on all week. We also had an issue with irrigation, on the back nine holes. Please be patient while thing get back up and running.
Thank you, The Lakes Management,
