Course maintenance

At the beginning of the season when the course was extremely wet. carts were allowed, and they damaged fhe course causing extremely large ruts, holes, a few were repaired, but a lot were just left.
The course has now dried out, but the course needs a lot of repairs, dead trees were supposed to be removed, but only a few were taken down.
On a positive note the staff are excellent., very helpful.
The clubhouse and food are very good as are the restaurant staff..
It is not an easy course and other than the ruts it could be an excellent course.

Just to slow..

A decent mid value course. It is not the best or the worst in the area. However, the pace of play was abysmal a wait on every hole.

Overrated reviews

Was expecting more from a 4 star rating. Played solo and got stuck behind a 12 player tournament. They wouldn’t let me play through... marshal was fully aware and didn’t do anything. Course was extremely wet and sprinklers were still going as I was going through the fairways. Not worth the price.

Course was very wet and found that the grounds did not have very good drainage. There was also a lot of ruts from the wet conditions on the course.

Freindly Pro Shop Staff

Forgot my putter and the staff gave me a lender. All staff, pros, restaurant and back shop are all friendly.
Course was very wet but not anyone's fault.... has rained for weeks.... This is a good value for the money course. And the restaurant food is worth staying around for.

Swamp Conditions

My poor review had more to do with Mother Nature than the golf course. I have played here numerous times and love the course. Although it's not the golf courses fault and I know they have to make money. Carts should not have been allowed out for the day. They are going to have a challenge repairing all the damage that was caused because of the wet grounds. I honestly believe the course should have been closed for the day. When I saw on Golfnow that carts were permitted, I assumed they had a dedicated path. Not the case. My heart goes out the the maintenance staff for the future work they will have to endure. It was extremely soaked out there. Good luck guys. Greens were absolutely amazing as usual though. Some of the best greens around.

Under water

The course was under water. I understand they need to make money, however the course will most likely need time to dry and massive amounts of repair work.
