Nice round, easy to book

Appreciated the ease of booking online. Nice course, first time playing there. Had no idea they had 36 holes!
Couple of big hills, so might be tough to walk it, but cart was reasonable.

Slow play because 5aome was allowed in front of us

It was a super slow round because no ranger was seen anywhere. 5aome ahead of us and we called the pro shop, supposed to send the ranger and never came.

Worth a trip to play!

Greens are well maintained! Definitely recommend riding if playing the Red course cause it’s hilly. Most holes are straight always with minor hazards and turns.

Nice Day At The Wheeler

Course is in good shape. Tee boxes need work. Greens slow and fairyways in good shape. Traps great shape. Red is tuffer than the black.

Weird Course. Awful staff.

Awful staff. Got yelled at on No. 10 for walking on a Sunday and not taking a cart. Every group seemed to complain about something and the group behind us hit into us every single hole on the back 9. Unreal.

Will never, ever go again to this course.

$100 to get yelled at on my birthday from a ranger. Great stuff.
