Underrated

This course is outstanding. Good fairway to green transitions. Lots of sand in traps. Pace of play fantastic. Wide enough fairways. Much better than many other courses to choose from that are relatively nearby.

Save Your Money

Sandless Traps, Poor transition from fairways to greens and no fringe, Terrible signage, divots everywhere, too dry, and dirty rest rooms. If you like a course like that then this one is for you.

Quality Maintenance

The pace of play was average at best. There was not an amenities cart. The course itself was well above average in its condition and design.

50% off is not enough

This is a course with rangers more concerned about cart path only restrictions than the pace of play or conditions of the in play facilities. It had recently rained a lot, but the course was dried out well enough late in the afternoon to allow at least a 90 degree rule, yet that was not changed. No effort was expended to pump traps that were saturated and largely unplayable. The foursome in front of us was taking 20 minutes per hole and was slowing down play, yet was not warned even when complained about. At 75% off this course NIGHT be worth playing.

Overpriced

This course is not a good value for the price you pay. I'd never play it unless the price was heavily discounted. The "Clubhouse" is lacking in every respect, there were no rangers controlling the pace of play even though the carts showed someone was holding everyone else up, the bunkers were large but did not have enough sand, the water hazards were not well kept, and the difference in height between greens and fringe was not proper. The fairways were properly mowed and the overall condition of the grass was above average.

A Friendly Course for a Novice

This course has significant elevation changes for the area, however the greens are all easily reachable in regulation. Although local conditions have been very wet, some areas were far too dry with burned grass on the fairways. The greens were in very good shape. Pace of play was outstanding. Our foursome shot from 84 to 104 and finished play in just over 3 hours.

Gorgeous Views

The course was very challenging, however it was fair. If you stayed near the fairways and greens you had very playable shots, however some bunkers were very steep and the grass was long enough to stop balls on their way in at incredibly steep angles. The course punishes you if you are not straight with a lot of blind shots and side hill lies. This is not a course for a high teens handicap.

Nicely Playable WHEN DRY

I was worried about golfing here because I had once prior and the conditions were quite wet. The course is built over a former sod farm and the grass can become very soggy. This time it was drier and the course acted as you'd expect a course to. They have 3 nines here which generally leads to little to no large backups. While this isn't a visually stunning course and has little elevation change, the holes are well shaped and the hazards are where you'd expect to find them. The course plays just fine.

Poor Player Management

This course management does nothing to improve the speed of play. I was in a threesome(waiting on the 15th tee), behind a twosome that was behind an incredibly slow foursome. When the foursome behind us had caught up to us and was also waiting on the 15th tee, I rode ahead to find that the foursome on the 16th hole had no one ahead of them playing on 17 or 18. After over 4 hours and just finishing 14 holes I left. It is difficult to golf when you spend 2/3 of the round waiting to hit.

A poor value

No course should have fairway grass so long that it is difficult to find your ball when hit in the fairway. I've played many courses of this style and this was by far the worst. For the price they charge this course should be manicured. It is no wonder that it was poorly attended on a weekend where it was difficult to get tee times elsewhere.
