Dandelions all over tees, fairways and rough. Very surprised. Plus range closed because ball picker broken. Greens very slow. 5 on stimp meter.

Fun course

Always a good mix of open and challenging. Greens were good. Fairways still in early Spring condition, but I liked the slightly longer cut on the fairways.

So sad....

So sad to watch this once nice course get worse & worse every year. Weeds in fairway, on tee boxes, & greens last year & more this year. Zero effort to make things better the last 2 years for sure. The ONLY reason to occasionally play is it’s so cheap on golf now. The poor conditions however now outweigh the bargain. Such great potential. Sad!

Needs some TLC

A good golf course. A good layout, plays well. Fair with off shots. Course needs a little TLC on the greens and tee box, could be early in the season with some recent wet conditions. Great value. Will play again.

VERY POOR conditions

Only played here 1 time in 2018 Because of conditions. I live close by and would like to play there more. I wouldn’t play there for free with present conditions. This course unfortunately has went down hill Year after year. Conditions are just awful from tee to green. Doesn’t seem like you have have a knowledgeable or caring maintenance staff. This is so unfortunate because the layout is great. Hopefully you get a new maintenance staff that cares. I see that you have new ownership but will not improve with the present maintenance staff.

One of my fave courses, more coming....

Love this place , used to be very difficult. Went through a bad patch but has turned the corner and getting better. I think they are working on their bunkers and once they get them filled in and back in shape they will be one of my fave courses again.

terrible; Nick Price would be outraged

Played several years ago with a Golfnow coupon for 2 rounds @ $38 total. Total waste of money. Course used to be fantastic, hard, well kept. The day we played fairways were a disaster, greens terrible.

I love the course

I love the course. I have been playing here more . I noticed the last couple times I played here I think the men’s club goes out on the back nine and you catch up with him and then there’s 4five or six of them playing together so they can hold everything up

So a paying customer says that the last couple of times he played he was held up by a 5 some and you thank him for playing. That’s one of the reasons I don’t play there anymore. It went to heck after Don Essig left.

Love it or leave it

This tract is great and the course is in good condition, contrary to some of the older reviews I've seen. Its eminently challenging and tests your sand game and iron accuracy to the max. One downside...by the 7th hole we had to call for an different electric cart as the battery was down. Same thing happened with the other cart by the 11th. By the end of the round the third cart was about to die. What's up with all that? Perhaps all batteries were purchased at the same time and all are now on their last legs? Anyway, would play again.

SLOW PLAY

WE WERE ABLE TO PLAY EARLY ON THE COURSE, HOWEVER WE WERE BACKED UP ALL DAY WAITING 5 TO 15 PER HOLE. THEY OVERBOOKED. THE COURSE ALSO HAD A DRIVER ON A TRACTOR AERATING THE ENTIRE COURSE. EVERY HOLE HAD PLUGS ALL OVER THE FAIRWAYS AND AROUND THE GREENS. THIS MAKE GOLF PLAY VERY HARD. SHOULD'NT THEY WAIT UNTIL OCTOBER WHEN THE COURSE SHUTS DOWN ???

Noisy, Slow, and Trashy

It is the time of year for course to aerate, but there was no effort to clean it up. Had a 3:50 tee time, was charged more than golf now said, had to get a refund. Still have not
Gotten that. They had a band playing at the club house when the group of 4 of us were on 11.

No one told us they would be blaring jazz. It was good! But we would have preferred to hear it AFTER the round.

Never going back. $21 is cheap for a round, yeah, but I would only pay $10.
