Do not play here

The course is in very poor conditions, roped off fairways, new sod intermittent but no GUR signs, green have just been aerated and badly done.
The pace of play on the front nine was really slow, waited at most tees, 5 groups were on or waiting at the ninth hole. Marshall arrived on the 13th hole when we complained about the slow play, he told us a long story. The same marshall arrived at the 16th green and told us to hurry up as he needed our cart for a 2pm tournament.
All of the upgrades are in the clubhouse.

This course has awesome potential.

What an amazing find this golf course is! It has undergone extensive renovations this year to the golf course. I had always heard that if someone were to invest in this golf course it would truly be a gem. I think they have found the perfect investor!
Website says there are plans underway for a clubhouse and other amenities. Can't wait to see how this unfolds!

Nice local course

It had been dry and hot for a week and the fairways showed the stress. However, the greens were in phenomenal shape. The course has its challenges but is also fairly forgiving. I would play this course again.

great for the money

To play here was excellent for the price we paid through Golf Now.
The course was ok but the ride on the cart was very bumpy.
Never saw a food cart.

Course needs some work on greens but is being worked on by new owners. Course has some drainage issues although we had a hard rain the day before.

A nice walk through nature, however...

Can't beat the price and the staff were very friendly. This is a lovely rolling rural setting that provides a good challenging walk. However, the course conditions, most notably the greens, are poor. I am told the greens are being restored but all still have significant damage. You will want to adopt the "no more than 2 putt rule". Bunkers also are in very poor condition. If you don't care about the putting and just want an economical 18 hole round in a natural setting, then go for it (but don't take anyone who is a complainer as they will have a lot to say and ruin your day)

great game

This course has came a long way in a short time. they now have a general manager and i think all new staff. some updating of the clubhouse,a new liquor license give it a new refreshing look. Outside i believe the course looks a lot better than in the recent past and they have plans to keep improving. i was reluctant to go back but I am really glad i did and I am excited for the future here!

Too Bad!!

The course layout is nice, but the condition is poor.
Some of the sand traps don't have sand in them yet, and the greens are winter burned, extremely slow and very bumpy. The course is dryer than last year and some of the brush has been cleaned up. There is a lot of potential with this course, it is just not well maintained.

Wet wet and wet

Early November so take that into consideration. Not sure they really should have let carts out there. I got stuck numerous times and sadly there were some serious wheel ruts and lots of ground water. But a good opportunity to practice and wide open.

Course has a good lay out

Played the course the morning after a heavy rain the course was extremely wet. I have played this course on better conditions and it plays a lot better the day we played we lost golf balls in the fair way because they plugged and we couldn't find them.

Course in Rough Shape

Used to play this course a lot including last year, but it has deteriorated terribly. The greens used to be the best in the area but not now. Water everywhere on the back nine. Tough not getting stuck. Fairways have not been cut for days. Too bad. It used to be one of the nicest in the neighborhood.

not so good of a day

The course was not maintained, tee boxes were overgrown with weeds.
No sand traps just dirt put in.
Yard markers are not in place on some holes.
Just looks like they gave up on the course ??no workers to be found , like to know if there going bankrupt.
With some work it would be a nice course good luck to them.
