The course was extremely run down the greens were so dry that half of them had cracks in them, it was like putting on cracked pavement. Would not recommend it to anyone or would never play again

NEVER AGAIN

This course was a diamond in the rough, now its just ROUGH.
This was our favorite little course, we went and played this, our final round there, ever, with pits in our stomach's. They were diving for golf balls in the pond???
All the tees are TOAST, the fairways are horrible, and the regular grass off the playing area hasn't been mowed for a while, broken down mowers are sitting around throughout the course, its awful, the clubhouse was Empty, i mean, nothing in there to sell, at all.
It wont be there long anyway, im guessing it will be a new development inside a year..........

Terrible Course Conditions

Played this course yesterday for the first (and last) time. It was the worst course I have ever played. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were beyond terrible and the rest of the course was littered with trash and fallen trees and branches. I have included a photo of one of the greens since words can not describe how bad the conditions are. We paid $45 for 18 holes and it was not worth $15. When we questioned the conditions in the Pro Shop we were told "We fired our greens keeper 2 weeks ago and no one could figure out how to turn on the sprinklers". The current conditions are a result of many months of neglect not 2 weeks of dry weather. Do not waste your money to play this course.

Shame

It's a disgrace that this place is even open and the Golf Now is still booking rounds here. Apparently It's shutting down in another month and they have completely stopped all maintenance. Tee boxes are nothing but dirt. Most fairways and greens are burnt out. Greens even are cracked like you're in the Sahara. Equipment left lying around course as if the maintenance crew found our what was about to happen and just walked out. Not worth it at any price,

Course was in horrible shape

The course was horrible. Played it in June and was in good shape. Played in August, tee boxes were brown, fairways brown, rough wasn't cut, and the greens were mostly brown with cracks and hard as a rock. To put it in perspective, approach shots that were hitting the green bounced as if they hit a cart path (majority of the greens). Very disappointing, this used to be a go to course. It won't be any more.

Poor Course Conditions

I played this course for the first time yesterday. Not only were the tee boxes (as most people mentioned) in really rough shape but so were the greens. On one green it was flooded with water while most other greens were cracking from obvious lack of watering. It wasn't overly crowded which was nice, but also a sign of the course if its not that busy at 9 am. I paid $30 for a hot deal on golf now and I feel like I overpaid. I wouldn't pay more than $20 to play this course.

Expected more from a "Private" course

Upon arriving in the parking lot I knew something wasnt right -- the parking lot at the club was in need of some TLC. Then, I managed to find the pro shop after needing to walk thru the men's locker room. Yes, you get get to the pro shop from outside, but this being my first time at the club, I didnt know. Very small and narrow practice range - holding maybe 4-5 golfers. The tee boxes were in bad shape, as were many of the greens. Fairways were in decent shape, but that didnt change my view of not returning. I paid $35 via Golf Now, but I dont think the course was worth $35. Was a single and eventually paired up with some nice fellas after a 4-some in front of me wouldnt let me play thru.

Huge Disapointment

it sounds like a fancy course and has a 3 1/2 star rating so we were led to believe we were getting a good value for our money. The truth is that we knew we were in trouble immediately after pulling up to a run down club house. All the tee boxes were cracked and brown from not watering. The fairway was brown and VERY hard. Only a couple greens on the back 9 were decent while the rest were unplayable in spots. I would not reccomend this course to anybody and it should be shut down.

It's a sad place

Course has been sold for development, its not worth more than $20 to play 18 here - some greens coming apart, rock hard, starting to crack from drying out.

course is closing this year, played as I used to have a friend that was a member.

Hard to play in those kinds of conditions.

This course should be closed! Horrible

I worked here 25 ago when it was impecable. Times have changed. Trash isnt even picked up, bunkers are mad, greens are ok, except when the sprinklers soak it (my ball was in a puddle). Trees down EVERYWHERE and the staff must not be instructed to remove them, causing them to be "in play". Bunkers have grass growing throughout, tee boxes are disgraceful. The furniture is ripped and unususable, which can't even be removed I guess. The course wasn't even OPEN for my tee time (had to wait for the teenager with the key!) And...I paid $50 to play this junkyard. Stay away!!! or play mini golf at Vinces, better conditions there.

A Darn Shame

Course is in bad shape...tee boxes have very little grass, greens are rough with alot of bumps and ball marks. The rough is uncut and impossible to play. Set aside a few extra minutes to find a ball in the rough.
I can't believe I paid $50 to play this once proud course. Looks like they've given up on it.
If I didn't see a few cars in the lot when I arrived, I would have thought the course was closed. The landscaping was horrible. Weeds, uncut grass, trees still down on the course for weeks. One actually laying on the tee box.
Total Disappointment!

Hangin' On

There's normally not many golfer on the course so getting 27 holes played within 4.5 hours can be expected. Some of the tee boxes are a mess; some greens are nice while others need work. $50 for a weekend morning tee time and 27 holes make it worth it.

Needs Improvement

Got a good deal through GolfNow for $35/player with some buddies and decided to give the course a try. Overall I was pretty disappointed with the quality of the course. The course is pretty open and relatively easy, fairways were decent, some more beat up than others, but playable.

The tee boxes were simply atrocious. They were not level and very beat up. It is clear they have not taken the time to keep them up to par.

The greens were also in rough shape. A lot of unfixed divots and general bumpiness made for very jumpy & unpredictable putts outside of 5 feet. Based on the sheer number of craters, I suspect the average patron here does not respect the game very much.

Roughs were in decent shape, although some spots close to the greens clearly had been run over by carts. Made finding balls particularly difficult.

Pace of play was great on the front nine but grinded to a halt for the final 4 holes - it took us about 2 hours! A ranger was desperately needed to keep things moving.

I wouldn't pay full price for a round here - if things do not improve I suspect the normal going rate will be $35/round. If they can fix the aforementioned issues, I think this could become a nice place to play on the weekends.

Sunday July 12th

It seems as though this course has given up on any kind of maintenance. The overall condition of the course is in need of some basic care; grass cutting, bunkers are becoming overgrown with weeds, crab grass has now started to invade the frogs hair around the greens. I think it was the 6th hole now has a sand bunker in the middle of the green. We paid $45.00 for greens fees which is to much at this point for this course.
Also no Rangers on the course, a single player jumped back from hole 14 to play 12 again because the group in front of him were playing to slow. so he jumped in between our group and the foursome in front of us.
