Fall evening golf

Teeded off at 3 so we had 3.5 hours to get in 18 on a Wednesday evening.. We got through 16 but really 15 with decent light. The course yin good condition. I love the layout. Greens weren't punched yet so I made my share of putts. Can't blame the lack of light on the course but the pace could have been better.

Beautiful tough course.

To the eye this place is beautiful but then you have to play it. You will be lucky to be standing on flat ground even if you're in the middle of the fairway. The greens are lightning quick so you better hight it high and land it soft. And even if you so that it may roll to the other side of the green. The fairways are wide enough and the tee boxes are nice. The distance between holes is long on most holes. Several hundred feet long in some cases so walking for this 65-year-old will never happen here and I walk my home course every week.

It's ok.

The course was in good shape. The greens were what greens are during COVID. That's about it. Nice place to play.

Hot fun

Hot and humid today but the course is in great shape and the greens were perfect. The pace of play was good and the only complaint was the cart girl passed us twice on her rounds. :( LOL

Last minute Sunday round

I played here three years ago and the course is the same. It beat me up back then but not today.
There is a lot of water on the course and it rewards shot control. Some of the fairways are narrow and are better played with an iron or wood off the tee. I didn't pull out my driver until the par 4's got around 400 yards.
The staff was friendly and helpful. The $10 bucket of 50 balls on the range was a little pricy and there is no other option. All in all, a good day on a nice course.

Bang for you golfing buck.

Between the virus and the flooding, the course is in great shape. It's dried out so your ball will run out a little and the goose turds are non-exhistant.

Everything else was flooded

I got a deal on Golf Now walking this course for almost $40. I took it because all my usual courses were flooded. Nice course, challenging, friendly staff but at their regular pricing I'm not coming back here. My opinion, YMMV. But yeah, for the price I'm playing someplace else all things considered.

This review has nothing to do with him other than it's one of the street names you drive in on.
The course is beautiful and very well kept. Don't play hybrids off the pine straw and be aware that Bermuda grass is VERY sticky and you should do just fine. A few of the greens had issues but it appears they are working on it. They are still entirely playable. Enjoy the views.

They take Tee reservations for SINGLES! A course trying to grow the game. NICE

Played here last year and my game was way off putting me in a bad mood and I shouldn't have written the review. I complained about pace of play but today, a Saturday, I played 18 in three hours. I complained about the mats on the driving range and today, grass. I really like everything else about the course including the golfers. Two threesomes let me play through without my asking. I finished the front nine in an hour and nine minutes. The back played a little slower but nothing bad. The greens were recently aerated but are rolling fast and true.
I'll play here again, it really is a present 18 to play.

Meh.....

It really is a nice course and kept up very well. The staff was courteous and the practice range was nice but, well, mats. Pace of play was slowed by players ahead of me and frankly I didn't expect as many on a Monday morning. My game was way off putting me in an even worse mood and at the 10th hole there was a tie up with the threesom and twosome ahead of me and it took two hours for the front nine with this holdup I decided to just leave. I might be back but it's a 40 minute ride for me so I'll probably play closer to home.

For $30 it's a good deal

18 holes in 4.5 hrs is slow for a weekday but I've done it in 3.5 hrs here too. It just depends on who's in front of you. The place is kept up well, fairways and greens are nice. Staff is friendly enough. Driving range and practice greens are nice to have too. Wish there weren't mats on the range but oh well. Overall I liked it.

Good beginner to intermediate course.

The greens are in very good shape. The fairways not so much but playable. It's a short course with no par 5's and no bunkers. You do hit over water in three places and those holes are some of the most challenging on the course. If you want to play the full length you'll be hitting off the mats because those are the blue tees. I've been there twice recently and both days had a rain element and with that there was little traffic and play was relaxed and fun.
