Wonderful course, Great people, Brisk pace

This is a fabulous course, challenging elevation changes and an interesting layout. The people working here are super friendly and courteous. And I was very pleasantly surprised by the pace of play and the reasonable cost of everything. Highly recommended.

First Time Playing

Very nice course; slow play Saturday pm.

First time playing here. Course was in very nice shape. Decent value. Unfortunately it was Saturday afternoon and we were stuck behind a couple slow groups that created a logjam. We called the pro shop and they sent a fellow out to give the groups guidance about limiting practice swings and picking up the ball after a few misses. It helped some, but we only got 16 holes in before dark. So staff did what they could. I just need to stick to playing weekdays!

My Take

Great Layout and very Friendly Staff. With the drought this summer I would say the course held up pretty well with fairways and greens being in great shape. Rough was patchy which is to be expected with zero rain all summer. Played on a weekday and pace of play was good. My only complaint or suggestion is to upgrade your cart fleet which were in pretty rough shape.

Course In Great Shape!

WOW! A long dry hot summer and it does not show at this course. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were well kept and well watered. Clubhouse guy was super nice and the starter is one of the nicest guys around! Love this course!

Great Course, Great Value But Just Shy of Excellent

Loved the course, it was in great condition. Given the heat and humidity it would be great if a course this new and this quality offered showers. I would have loved to shower and put on dry clean clothes on after a fantastic round, but instead I had to make the hour drive in my sweaty clothes.

Also, my foursome repaired on average about 6 ball marks on the greens from previous golfers. This was disappointing as they clearly do not appreciate the course they have out there as they golfers do not do their part.

Great course but slow

I enjoyed the course very much, just the right challenge for an intermediate golfer. The course was in condition. However pace of play was slow. Took at least an hour more to play than expected.

Woods and water

Nice layout. Hit a mid to long iron off 15 tee and a 5 or 3 wood off 16 tee. Driver too risky on each.
