The cow pasture was looking a lot better today; I like the many par threes on the back and some of the drivable par four plus one of best hole in golf the number 10 par 6.

Good value , good for practice

Got a hot deal for 13.00 on a Saturday. Facility feels something between practice grounds and a course. Tee boxes fair at best, fairways are not Bermuda but grass that you would see at local playground but greens are good. Pace of play is good especially for a weekend and price is good especially if you just want to practice your game and not be pushed from players behind you. Staff friendly as well

Fun and fast

I was the first one out today as a single. Borrowed a set of clubs from them. 1hr 45m. Had a blast. Super fun little track. Not a lot of trouble. Driver+9 all day long. A mess of fun little par 3s and a par 6. Just do it. $28 with cart for 18? Just do it

Abby course

My opinion only is it was like playing golf looking for grass to hit your ball off of (I called it the cow pasture) ground was very hard

St Leo seen it's better days

When we arrived at this course there was one car in the lot. Approaching the club house there's a blue tarp over the roof and a sign saying building condemned. Walking around the building you find this small trailer they're using for a pro shop.
The course was in winter mode which all courses are. All greens are raised higher then the fairways so your never going to see a ball roll into the green. I have to say the greens were in great shape. A couple need work but overall good job. The fairways are thin on grass. A lot of bear spots. One thing we did notice is they need more signs or something to distinguish the layout of the course. On the sixth hole you tee off and you see a green straight ahead of you so we played it. Come to find out it was the eighth green we played. The sixth was a 90 dog leg left which we drove around and figured out.

Don’t. Just, don’t.

This course is easily one of the worst courses I’ve ever played. Let’s start at the top. Clubhouse is unsafe to enter due to a fire, so the “clubhouse” is actually a little tan trailer. I’m not gonna blame the course for this, but it definitely is a clue as to how your round will go. The first tee is where the problems start. The tee boxes are not level, yardages are guesstimated at best (had a golfer behind us hit their tee shot into the green we were on from allegedly 270 out, yet he assured us he doesn’t hit it near that far), there is no clear indicator of what is fairway and what isn’t, and several tee boxes ask you to hit a better tee ball than the pros. To be honest, if you end up in a patch of grass off the tee, you’re lucky. It’s mostly dirt and dead grass. The greens are incredibly fast... sometimes.... and sometimes they’re slower than the “fairway”. Will you ever know which it is? Nope! The inconsistency in condition from green to green makes it impossible to get a feel for them. You get punished for hitting bad shots, you get punished for hitting good shots. Hit your putt a little too hard? Better grab a wedge, because you’re gonna have about 10 yards back in. Hit your drive with a draw or cut? Chances are you’re gonna be off the “fairway” in some trees, even if you hit the middle of the “fairway”. I don’t leave reviews often, and try to give courses the benefit of the doubt, especially in January for $25, but this course was so bad I couldn’t not say something. Save yourself the time and frustration and go play elsewhere.

DISCLAIMER: Every person on the staff that we interacted with was very friendly, and my review in no way is meant to target them, but the course is so bad, no amount of friendly staff could help salvage an extra star.

Greens were in great shape but slow and grainy. Fairways were mostly in poor condition with many areas with thin to no fairway grass. However, it is a fun little course to play from time to time.

Dollar a Hole

Not a great course. Tees are rough. Fairways are poor. Greens ok but slow. Not one sand trap. Lots of par 3’s. Value is okay at a dollar a hole.

good times

The staff is excellent as is the owner Tom. I only have one arm so this shorter course is fine with me. The greens are full and play true.

Nice Greens

Nice green. Most players there are higher handicapped golfers which result in slow play. Fairways are undefined

Best greens

The best greens we have played on around this area. Tom, the owner, is such a professional, caring individual. I would highly recommend this shorter par 4 course for a nice fast game of golf where your golf game will be greatly tested.

First time on the course

I had been to the driving range multiple times before finally taking the plunge and playing the course.

While I agree with other reviews stating it feels like you’re playing in someone’s backyard, I think it’s endearing.

The front 9 was a bit confusing layout wise but after that it made sense.

As someone who picked up golf two months ago I can say this is a great course for beginners as it has a little of everything.

Staff was exceptionally nice.
