Wonderful course- play was a little slow today- 4:10. Ranger came by to tell us that it would be slow but didn’t seem to address why it was slow.

So the group I was playing with cancelled. Staff was right on top of it - comped me some range balls and found me a group. Overall experience excellent. Course conditions excellent and the salt-resistant grass is great to play on - and even growing at this time of year. This course is a must play for all.

This is the second consecutive time I have been rushed by the ranger who explain that we had to pick up the pace because they had 220 playing today. We played the front 9 in 1:55 and finished on 19 with an elapsed time of 3:33!!!
So why hassle us about pace of play. It sort of reminds me about that golf Mecca in SC where they take your money and then chase you off the course.
The course is in pretty good shape. The guys that I was paired with were great.
Range balls were old and filthy - I didn’t want my new clubs touching them.
Overall experience was okay but for this kind of money they need to give us a better golf experience.
My last review didn’t make the cut because I was so exasperated by the ranger that I may have used a bad word or two. Hopefully this review will get published. We need to know the real story before we book on this site.

Great staff - good conditions - overall an excellent experience

Greens are true and fast. The tee boxes are not ready for prime time. Most tees are short on grass and many are not level. Golf is hard enough without downhill or side hill lies on the tee.
Course is still a great value.
I have had some almost 5 hour rounds there - the marshals need to better address pace of play.

I don't expect to pay over $80 and have cups that are at least 3 days old. Greens were okay except for damage caused by not changing hole locations often enough. This was once a well maintained course. There are too many well maintained courses in the area to have to put up with these conditions.

Played the front 9 in 2:45. Back nine was even slower but I quit after 15.
I arrived at first tee early and starter tried to push us right out on course. When we got to 2nd tee there were 3 foursomes waiting to tee off. We waited a long time for every shot after that.
Course is a decent layout. Needs a great deal of maintenance. It was hard to find level ground on the tees. Greens are okay for public golf.
This seems to be happening to lots of municipal golf courses. They take in lots of money but can't spend it on maintenance because the town uses the money for other things. The towns treat the golf course as a cash cow. Too bad for them. There are lots of other courses that will get my money from now on.
