What would have been a very pleasant afternoon of golf was marred by issues with our motor cart, which several times went into "restricted area shutdown" when being operated ON THE CART PATH! When requests for help went unheeded - told there was no one who could come and help - we were forced to push the cart up a moderately steep incline in order to reach our tee box and continue our round. When our cart was returned by my playing partner he was told there were "electrical problems" with no apology or offer of credit or refund for our troubles.

Despite notifying the pro shop (they promised to send someone but never saw anyone and nothing changed), we witnesses at least two groups of 5 on the course and the one in front of us was extremely slow besides and habitually parked their cart in FRONT of the green and also ignored the 90 degree rule in effect. They were at least 2 holes behind and at one point there were 3 groups waiting at one hole. Fairways were not closely mowed and had considerable bad spots. Greens were inconsistent speeds.
No drinking water on course. Ball/club washer on cart had no water in it.

Greens and fairways were parched in spots and greens had not only not been aerated in over 5 years, they also evidently were not rolled either. Additionally there were many goose droppings, large leafs and tree debris on the greens. Maybe they don't own a blower either. Very disappointed.

There are a number of holes where what you think is a good shot turns out not to be one because of course layout so good if you play with someone who knows the course.

This course provides a nice variety of holes , both distance and style. Conditions were good and high rough and fast greens were challenging.

Course conditions left something to be desired. Halfway house was closed when we finished at 3:15 PM and bar was not open, just a limited selection of beer available from cooler in pro shop. Sign said beverage cart was on course but never saw. No drinking water on course - all the stations were empty. Bunkers short of sand, tee have many divots, and fairways have bare spots.

When we arrived at this gated community to play our pre=paid round we were not allowed entry by the guard who said they weren't honoring Golf Now tee times and suggested calling the clubhouse. I did this and got a voicemail recording. I left an urgent message which went without reply EVER. I called Golf Now customer service which said they could not cancel my reservation or process a refund wuthout talking to the course to verify the situation, which, of course, they could not do. I don't know if they will continue to pursue this or not, but I certainly hope so. I did receive some Hot Deal credits for my inconvenience and the rep was very pleasant, but unable to help.

Maybe they should have waited to re-open after their renovation and re-naming of this course. The fairways were soggy with numerous bare spots and the rough was inconsistent and had many weeds. Many of the tee boxes were aerated and muddy. The new re-built greens were painfully slow on some holes and just slow on the others. The many sand traps were very nicely built but some were very wet for some reason. The preserved classic layout is still a cause for hope that this course will become much better.

This course has a number of nuances and features that can adversely affect your score and your disposition if you're not aware of them. Additionally, course conditions were a bit rough in places and the greens weren't rolling very true with uneven surfaces and also had some aeration remnants. Overall, it is a nice layout but improved conditions are needed to make this course worth the price and reputation.

The 2 nines seemed almost like different courses, the front being relatively short and straight with minimal hazards, while the back has a number of longer holes, water hazards and forced carries. The fairway conditions were just okay and the greens still had remnants of recent aeration. I enjoyed playing and will probably visit again in the future, but not on a regular basis.

The course offers plenty of diversity in hole design and requires good course management. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to us, the greens were aerated which adversely affected our round. All in all, however, a good golfing experience.

Course was basically closed with clubhouse locked and no one on site. Found one cart with key in it and played the round we had pre-paid for.
We still enjoyed the course, as always, but think there should have been some communication between Golf Now and the course management, as we could well have ended up making the trip there for naught.

The round was marred by extremely slow play because management allowed one or two groups of 6 or 8 playing scramble while selling tee times 8 minutes apart. Very disappointing . Additionally greens were in terrible condition. Beyond the remnants of aeration, they appeared to have been damaged by heavy play and no rolling or maintenance repairs. Such a disappointment to see this lovely course reduced to looking like an overplayed muni.

This is an interesting course with a nice variety of holes and some pretty tough greens. The fairways are in decent condition and the greens are in fair condition. Cart paths are practically unpaved with plenty of holes and bumps. Employees were fairly unpleasant. Still, all in all, a very good value for the cost and worth the trip. The bar would be okay during non-Covid times.
