Beautifully Maintained

Definitely a thumb up! The course conditions continued to become better and better every time I played over the last 4 years. Every part from the tee boxed to fairways to greens are so beautifully maintained. The food is good and reasonably priced, and the pro-shop and food court staff is friendly.

New Owner !

This is one of my favorites in this area, and definitely the best value for the price. The course is well maintained and even with lots of rain lately, is in great conditions. The lady, I assumed she’s the new owner, was super nice and friendly.

Early in the Season but in excellent condition

I appreciated it very much when the gentleman from the pro-shop came out to wipe the cart dry after checking me in. Small things matter, and thank you!

Rude and Mean?

This is actually one of my favorite courses in the area.

I arrived at the course about 30 minutes early, as I usually do, so I would have time to practice putting and familiarize myself with the conditions of the greens. The gentleman in the pro shop told me he would not check me in, nor allow me a golf cart to load my bag until my tee time. My buddy came in a bit later and loaded his bag onto one of the many carts as we usually do. The pro shop gentlemen angrily pulled the key out of that cart. I couldn't help shaking my head, and he then threatened me by saying "Do you want to play gold here or not?"

I was really taken aback by this kind of behavior from a pro shop staff. Golf is supposedly a gentlemen's (and gentlewomen's) sport, if you don't care about manners, maybe another line of work suits you better instead of the pro shop.

I inserted myself into the conversation because you aren't being honest about what really occurred. I was standing right there and witnessed the entire exchange. Yes, you arrived at least thirty minutes prior to your tee time, but you also had the intention to begin your round considerably earlier than the tee time that you bought. It's almost farcical that you try to turn this around and blame the pro shop staff for your own disrespectful behavior.

Sir, if you're not the lady nor the gentleman working in the shop, then you're really not a part of this conversation. You might be trying to stick up for your friend, but to call me rude just because I arrive to check in 30 minutes early is simply outrageous and totally out of line!

No, I'm not a lady and no I'm not kidding. You were completely out of line. Embarrassing, really.

If you're the lady in the shop with the gentleman at the time you should have heard exactly what I said. I wanted to check in and get a cart to load my bag, he refused both. I also told the gentleman that I'd like to practice putting a bit and wait for my golf buddies. Where and when did you get the idea I wanted to go out there early, without my group? Who's being untruthful here? You got to be kidding me?

I was standing right there when all of this went down, and I have to say that you are not being truthful. In defense of the gentleman who was running the pro shop, you and your group were trying to go out on the course at least a half hour before the tee time that you bought. A 'Hot Deal' is not a general admission ticket to play the course at whatever tee time you decide works best for you. If you buy a time for noon, you get to go out and play at noon. Not before and not after. Don't blame the guy working at the course for your own rude behavior.

Challenging but beautiful

Very friendly staff and a very well maintained course. Even after days of rainy weather, fairways were drained dry and greens were firm and fast. Truly a gem!

Much Improved and Beautiful!

This is one of my favorite courses, but it was not in the best shape last year. However, the course conditions now have been much better, bad spots have been repaired and lower areas are drained dry. The fairways are well maintained and greens are smooth, I really enjoyed my round on this beautiful course.

Good public course but sometime slow pace.

Every hole has something interesting, and I also like it reasonably priced and right in the neighborhood. On a good day, things could move along well, however, every once in a while whenever there is a slow group, everyone would suffer the long waits.
