Nice improvements

This course is getting better every time I play here.
I always considered it to be a “practice “ course for 9 after work. But it has been cleaned up and improved into a nice neighborhood 9 hole course I would recommend to anyone.

Great nine hole course

This is a pretty nice nine hole course and great value for the money. Tees, fairways and greens were in good shape. Only concern is 9th tee is a little too close to the 8th green and I can’t imagine errant balls haven’t flown in on people there. Surprised they haven’t put up a screen by now. Two par 5’s are really just long 4’s (433/431 yds.) in just about anyone’s book, so I’d really consider this a par 33.

Used to be called the Patch, not anymore.

Great 9 hole layout. Small but excellent greens. Tuff putting it you don't play there often. I live in Florida but grew up 3 blocks from this course. When I first played it last year I wrote a letter to the township giving praise.

The greens are the key

The only thing I would change is the size of the greens. Bigger is better.
