No Longer BYOB

A lot of weeds and some bunkers that should just be covered, one green was almost unplayable due to zero grass. However, for $50 it is worth it to me personally and the location is right off the highway which is extremely convenient coming from downtown.

This course has been BYOB for as long as I can remember but when we played on the 19th that was no longer the case. This isn’t mentioned anywhere on their website.

Classic old Course, that needs repair

Very nice country club in its day. Sadly, tough times have hurt the course and club house. Many rumors that it is being sold or closing. Course needs work. Could be a great course, tons of room and challenging, but was fun to play and think about what it was. Hopefully, they find an owner that will maintain and improve. If not, course won't be here for long. Good luck. No Food or Beverage available.. only cans of soda from the club house. Tee boxes had many weeds, surprisingly greens were ok. One had tons of damage, but it was large so pin placement was on the opposite side.

Classic Donald Ross

Great layout, but rough around the edges. Many bunkers were full of weeds and course needed to be watered, especially the greens. Play it before it ceases to exist.

Great day and course to play

The golf course, except for the un-maintained sand traps was in great shape. Tee to greens was very good. The rough was manageable. Overall we had a great time.
