Golf carts

They have the golf carts configured so constrained you really can’t get off the cart path. The course needs a lot of maintenance. Never saw the cart person , but the ranger was out. Not worth the money

This course is in great shape for this time of year.

I came out to shoot 9 holes with my brother-in-law in the afternoon. Temp. was 65 and sunny. Beautiful day out. The course was in great shape. Cart path only, which helped out the fairways alot. Greens were in excellent shape along with the tee boxes. Would recommend everyone to come out and shoot a round at this course. Friendly staff and excellent food was available at the tin cup restaurant at the course. I give this course 5 stars.
