Fun time

People couldn’t be nicer and they have good irrigation so it’s not dry. Fun par 70 course with views of the lake. Really enjoyed the round and will go back.

Don't waste your money

Poor layout, super short, some weird holes with no shots from the blue. In decent shape and staff was friendly but not worth the money. Maybe for $20 with cart, but that's about it

Great Value with enough challenge

Have played this course each of the last 3 summers. It is a fun challenge for a vacation Course. Pace of play was great. Condition of the Greens were the best I have experience on this particular course ever. Visit each year from the Florida heat and truly enjoy the atmosphere. .

Strange little course

Interesting, yet needs maintenance help. Greens are small and roll well. Better get your yardages correct on some quirky & blind holes.

Nice course; some scenic holes

This is a nice recreational golfer course! Some tough holes, some pretty holes and often a deer will be on the fairway. The pace of play today was great but on busy weekends can be slow. Some golfers stop for a beer during their round and when they come back onto the next hole there can be a logjam of multiple groups.

Extremely overpriced goat path

I lost my ball in the fairway multiple times due to lack of maintenance and poor drainage. Incompetent staff who doesn’t know how to start a lawnmower. This course would be more useful as farmland. You couldn’t pay me to play this again. This was my first and will be mylast time playing here

Review of GolfNow!

Nothing against the golf course.... it was raining cats and dogs, but GolfNow wouldn’t give money back, neither would the course give a rain check. Pretty crappy policy!

Golf cart stuck, had to call a truck to get it out, rained continuously, pretty awful.

Beautiful course!

We love playing on this beautiful course where some holes overlook Paw Paw Lake. Today there were not many people so the pace of play was great. The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Enjoyed the round so much we’ll be back tomorrow!

Nice track!

Love the risk reward of the driveable par 4’s. Par 3’s are a definite challenge. The only thing I don’t like about this course are the first two holes which are 200 yd par 3’s.
