I don't like to give poor ratings to courses given all the challenges it takes nowadays to run a course, however, the course is not being maintained compared to a former standard it had years ago. Simply, there is no green grass on the fairway or rough. The course was very dry, dusty actually. Sure it helps the roll but honestly, I prefer not to hit off hard pan. The greens were much better than the fairways. I'd rate them as above average. I play many courses in the area and found this to be in worst condition of them. The layout is challenging enough. But you can find much better conditions within 20 minutes of this course. I hope it improves, but will not play it, till I see a better review.

Really fun round of golf. The course was in great condition for January! Greens rolled great and were receptive. Fairways weren't sloppy and balls were bouncing. And 17 never disappoints!

"A little overpriced but a fun course"

Reviewed on 11/18/2015
Course was in ok shape. Granted I did play when they were aerating the greens but I'm not dinging them for that as I knew about that before I booked the tee time. Bunkers don't drain well and most were in pretty bad shape. All that being said it was overpriced and I got it with a special. Some of the holes are really fun though and provided a good challenge. Look through the trees to the right of the teebox on hole 17 and across the water and you might get lucky like me and get to see two bald eagles.

"Pace of Play issues"

"Pace of Play issues"
Reviewed on 07/14/2015
Went out here on my birthday as a single to get in a round. There were only two foursomes in front of me and I waited for 15-20 minutes between every shot. No marshal or representative was seen at all to keep pace of play even normal for an average foursome. I literally walked off the course after 6 holes after being on the course for an hour and 45 minutes already. No one seemed to care in the pro shop and didn't offer any sort of remorse...just kind of a whatever attitude. Course conditions were fair for the season, good layout as always but can't recommend it because it's torture to play at a five and a half hour pace. Need to show some customer service and respect the game.

So I am a single digit handicap for reference. This course has a good layout and the greens were in pretty good shape but slow from all the rain recently. The fairways were very poor condition. I drove the ball exceptional and I almost never had a good lie in the fairway. The rough looks like all weeds which is mowed once in a while. Not one bunker had been raked in at least a week. I will not return based on the poor conditions.

single/ riding took 4 hrs to play 18 holes due to group of 4 ahead would not allow play through, Would not recommend walking due to course layout No course marshal on week days, course manager not in club house, ( out playing golf)<br/> Can't tell where fairways are from tee box. All fairways are packed, dead grass. Some bunkers full of water. Waste of time and money.
