Booking Tee Times

Golf Now/ Tee Off tee times are generally late in the day, getting in 18 holes with most of their tee times is impossible. Yesterday we had a 2:39 and only got in 16 holes barely, ranger seen infrequently and not pushing people to speed up their play, 4 hours 15 minutes to get only 16 holes is ridiculous and expensive.

Variety of holes

Course well maintained, most holes are different in nature. Course has variety of hills and flat holes. Greens Putt true and are relatively fast. Worst part ranger doesn't enforce speed of play. Our round took 4 hours and 40 minutes not bad but not good either. I will come back again.

Read all previous reviews, particularly recent ones

Stay away, many other courses in the area a much better value for your $. All but Holes 9 & 18 were more brown than green. Many brown spots in fairways were very thin or no grass at all. They charge between $110 and $130 for prime time which is absolutely ridiculous for the prices they charge for the atrocious condition. I will never be back again.

Correct. With aerification comes recovery conditions. 1 star for our effort in maintaining our greens after a long season of heavy play? Tough crowd! haha Kidding! Thanks for the review eighty2028! Give us a couple weeks and all our effort will be visible with beautify greens! Maintenance is part of the process! :)

Great course for beginners

Tees getting much better than a month or so ago. Greens still need a lot of work althoigh they were a little faster than normal. Fairways in reasonably good shape.

Thank you for the 3 star review! We are certainly in our time of season where we are doing a lot of repair work on our greens and course. We appreciate the feedback and will have the course back up to par in no time. Have a great day!

Needs Getter Management

Stay away until they get the kinks worked out. Starter and Ranger same person. To speed up play, they send messages through GPS on carts, which did absolutely nothing to speed up play. Our round took 5 hours and 5 minutes. Waited on every tee except one the whole round.

COURSE NEEDS TIME TO HEAL FROM RECENT RAIN

I'VE PLAYED THIS COURSE IN THE PAST WHEN IT WAS IN MUCH BETTER CONDITION THAN IT WAS TODAY. THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF RAIN IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS AND HAVE HAD TO CLOSE THE COURSE SEVERAL DAYS BECAUSE OF IT. GREENS WERE VERY VERY SLOW.

Improving

Management definitely putting money and effort into improving the course. Cart paths much improved. Plenty of new turf laid down in fairways where bare or thin areas had been previously. Greens were in great shape and are faster than the average courses in our area. Definitely will play again in the near future.

Stay Away

Course is saturated, fairways and rough, lost several balls on edge of rough and fairways.5 out of 6 fairways I did hit ball was plugged. No roll whatsoever on fairways. Greens in good shape but very slow, hopefully another month will bring better conditions, stay away in November of 2017.

Getting Better

Fairways and greens in good condition, some tees are in the process of being replaced, some still have a ways to go before they are in good condition. Stopped on the turn to get some beer to go, bartender didn't know prices, could of cared less that we were there. Decided not to give them our business after our round was completed. Will play course again if pricing stays reasonable with other area courses. GPS on carts doesn't give yardages only pictures of holes.
