All tee boxes are in need of repairs. Too many tree branches hanging over the narrow fairways.

Interesting course. The back nine is much shorter than the front nine, but still keeps your interest. Also, most longer holes all seemed to "turn left." I felt as if it was Nascar golf, a little bit. Would have liked to exercise my
dominant fade once in a while, but it was good practice to overcome it instead.

Great value

Short course and the fairways and rough blend together. But a short course with some of the better greens you will find.
