Tee boxes and fairways are bad

Greens are nice rest of the course needs help. I'd recommend it because of the price. Full price I wouldn't recommend it.

Needs a little love

Tee boxes, fairways, yikes, the greens slow but decent. Staff awesome. Pace of play was brutal as a group was 2-3 holes behind and let nobody through. No Marshall to address it. Had to skip a hole then we ended about 4 holes ahead of them. If you can't keep up, let others through. Brutal

Mini golf on steroids

This course is brutal, the new layout is a complete joke. It looks like the owner got their 12 year old kid to redesign the course after they were too greedy to leave it alone and hack this course into a complete joke. I think the kid had help from his mom as the landscape designer, this isn't a golf course it's a gardening project by a bad gardener. " Gee I think a pond will look good here, maybe a fountain there" forget that it's a stupid place for a pond on a golf course. One tee box is 90 yards from the pin which you can't even see the green or landing area!!!!
The GPS is off by 100's of yards, the cards don't match the yardage on the posts they have. Can't ever figure out how how far you are. It's a cow pasture, the greens are garbage, you'd be better off playing on astroturf. There's Tee boxes in the middle of other holes. They tried to squeeze 4 holes where 2 should be. Just a hack of a course, Get a real designer not your 12 year old to do it. If I ever got hit by a golf ball while on one of their asinine Tee boxes in mid fairway, I would sue, no nets no protection from incoming balls from behind while you Tee off. They basically got rid of 3-4 holes then squeezed them into the area where 14 holes used to be. Can you say kiddie golf!!!! Brutal conditions, brutal course nice staff. Waste of money. I have never seen such a brutally designed course

Not as good earlier this year

Wasn't impressed this time, greens need TLC. Was nice twice before, but seems like they dropped the ball. Still decent but was better previously.

Not worth the money

Sorry, but this course was well below many others in the area that were less money. Fairways like cow pastures. Hard and not in great shape. Greens need work. Not impressed

Much better than last year

Ok course is making a comeback. Nice work. But the green repairs need to be filled in. A bit of sand or dirt then let the grass grow. You see drops on greens on every repair.

Course is in nice shape rakes are dangerous

The course overall was nice although very soft around the greens. Must attack the greens no rolling up. The rakes are dangerous and leave you with splinters, don't pick them up without a glove on. Girlfriend got a few splinters from rakes. Otherwise nice course

Course is falling apart

Greens are overrun with quack grass, the cart paths are an accident waiting to happen. The concrete paths are all broken and dangerous. They need a greenskeeper the greens are brutal.

Used to be a great place to play.

I used to play regularly here pre covid. I was a hidden semi gem. Nice layout, they took pride in it. Now it seems they could care less. The cart paths ride like you are in an earthquake. They may as well rip them out before someone kills themselves. The tee boxes haven't been mowed. The greens are brutal, quack grass everywhere. Hire a greenskeeper, it's time before your greens are destroyed. Bumpity bump goes the ball. Very disappointed with this place, it's like it's closing soon and the could care less if it turns to Junk!!! Golf now should warn golfers

Nice course but not for average player

Look don't get me wrong but the greens and pin placements make it unenjoyable to play. Nice course but never going back.

Very nice round

except for one green and 2-3 tee boxes that need to be fixed the course was very good. The sand traps could be addressed. Had a very good round as we were almost alone on the course. Lots of holes had water in play.. Staff was very nice. Would go back again

Greens need more attention

You can tell they are trying to improve the course. Grass on greens is long. Needs to be either cut or rolled. Too long and too slow. Otherwise the course is good.

Very long but very nice

This course had 6 par 5s which made it very long and hard to play. This would be good for long hitters of which I am not. In very good shape staff were friendly. No complaints.

Tight and narrow course

Very tight course, some greens need work. Staff is friendly. If you don't stay straight you may need lots of balls. I would return, there are some very nice holes.
