Good muni

Green are inconsistent, boxes are beat up. But it is a challenging course with a good layout. Halfway house is in a great spot in the middle ao there is always a chance to go to the bathroom or grab some refreshments. Has sand, water, blindshots, elevation changes, trees and forgoving layout if you spray the ball.

Could be so much better

On the positive side, it's obvious the course is paying attention to the greens. They were fast, well cut, and in great shape. But that's kind of where it ends.
The fairways and areas right off the fairway have many bare and bald spots. Grass is very sparse in spots, and you wonder whether or not grass seed and fertilizer is ever applied. You almost have to play winter rules all of the time and move your ball onto a patch of turf, because quite often your ball will land on a bare spot or area with thin grass.
The traps, if you want to call them that, are trash. No sand, ruts, just totally neglected. Either add sand and mulch them, or seed over them. Status quo is unacceptable.

Great course for the price

It’s cheap course to play for your average golfer. Course maintenance is decent and staff is friendly. Not as challenging of a course but is fun to play.

Outing issue

Overall a decent municipal course. We were 45 late to go off the tee cause of an outing running way late. Then we were on 15 and told we would have to be leaving cause another outing going out. Definitely needed better management there. Course was in decent shape
