Great value! Short and fun!

Great value for a quick 18 at a par 62. Course is in okay shape with some summer die off of grass. Great little snack bar and patio. The driving range is basically dirt, and you’ll be hitting off mats. The practice putting green is very basic and flat. No real area to chip or sand practice. The course has some short holes, but you’ll swing your driver enough to feel like a normal 18. Overall, worth it and always fun! Great warmup round for a bigger course and a great place to keep your skills sharp. Found myself hitting my lob wedge and 40 to 60 yard approach shots a lot!

Hot Deal Worthy

Biggest gripe would be green conditions, most were green but lots of bumps and divots from lack of maintenance and golfers not fixing impacts specifically on the greens.

Hello u314163874700,

We are sorry to hear about the wet course conditions you experienced during your visit with us. It is unusual for the course to be so wet, but I know depending on the time of day you play, the course may be more wet than normal. We apologize for this inconvenience and we hope you will give us another chance in the future!

My first play at this course. Itis a nice, flat executive course. I rode a cart because i need it and it was included in fee. There are water features which can be avoided. Holes are a mixture of 3s and 4s. Nice round.

Some land, some water, lots of geese and squirrels!

Overall the course, although shorter, shorts 3s, 4s, no 5s. It is in great shape, well maybe because of all the rain? The price is getting up there with normal length courses and that saddens me, because why would I go to a short course rather than a championship course? For very similar money? The big advantage of DLB is a course to work on your accuracy and not monster drives..
