Course in great shape

Greens, fairways and tee boxes all in tip top shape. Tough to stop the ball on the greens with all the slope on the greens on approach shots and chips. Best to leave the ball below the hole. A bit slow with a lot of twosomes out there but a georgeos day and great scenery, always nice to be on this course.

Nice day

Greens in good shape, fairways ok. Ground hard as a rock. Could use some watering . Had to play it ten yards short to approach the hole.. always fun and nice people out on the course. Started 30 minutes late. Need to space out tee times.

Always a great time, staff is awesome, minor issues

Had trouble with range ball number at practice area but another kind old gentleman golfer paid for us. Found my range finder on range and saved it. Greens were aerated and top dressed so a bit bumpy. Still very receptive and true. No cart girl but water all over the course and no food at turn far from clubhouse. Two guys in front of us were slow and struggling. Still the best deal , course conditions in the area .

Great Day

The greens were in tip top shape, just the right amount of firmness, watering and proper grooming. Well manicured greens and fairways in good shape as well as tee boxes. Ground hard so tough to plant your tees for tee shots. Fairways hard so ball rolled extra far.. Great day for scoring in spite of the wind. 8 one putts always help your score, as geens were true. People friendly and helpful but no ranger so pace of play is hit or miss. Had 3 stooges in front of us hitting multiple shots but still finished in 4 hours.

Great day as always

Greens, tee boxes and fairways all in great shape. Staff is friendly, attentive and they don't put too many people on the course. Pace of play was great most of the day but slowed down a little on the back. No one behind us all day which was a pleasure. Only area for improvement could be a few bunkers need some fresh sand. Weather was great . Plenty of water on the course for drinking and a friendly cart girl too.

Dont play on Friday

Poor experience compared to what I am familiar with at this course. The range was closed because the personnel that worked there couldn't be bothered to collect the range balls. Then the first tee was backed up and 20 minutes late and people were playing as a group of seven. Front nine took 2 hours and 20 minutes when we can usually play in under two hours. Skipped three holes on the back since the groups out there were so slow and had no idea what they were doing. They had two open holes in front of them but were in no hurry. Need to have someone out as a ranger to move people along so their day is not ruined with such slow play.

Greens in great shape

Greens were fast and in great shape, tightly packed. Soft on approach shots but not chewed up from ball marks. Course was mostly empty so pace was good and staff very friendly. Wet day but still able to take carts on fairways. All good.

Great day in the heat

Course in great shape considering all the rain, heat and dry conditions the past month. Tee boxes , fairways and greens all in great shape. Crabgrass being killed off around the green due to the heat and dry weather last month so glad they are being proactive. Great pace of play, only 3:43 minutes to play 18.

Great day

I was surprised the course and parking lot was half empty since usually both are very full. Great for us since there was no one in front of us or behind us most of the day. Greens were top dressed just a little bit but didn't effect the putting. Friendly staff and cart girl to make it a wonderful day.

Perfect Day and Great Conditions

The course is in very good condition with the greens well maintained as well as the fairways . The rough is fair with some challenge but not too punitive. Traps could use more sand in them is the only area for improvement. Always friendly staff and nice people golfing there.

Beautiful Day

Course is always in good condition. Plenty of traps to protect the green and approaches. Many different tees so yardage can be selected appropriately. Gets lots of play so greens have too many ballmarks but other than that always friendly staff , cart girl and nice golfers out here. Hope they are expanding the parking lot since that is always cramped.

Fun day

the course was wet and the conditions cool early and windy. It got warmer as the day got later . Moved along well but no starter created a bit of some chaos on the course, though they did have a Marshal. Lots of water and blind shots so it helps to know the course. Distand was good and fairways and tee box aim was fair. Greens fast and true.

Great day

Staff moved me to Lake rather than Road. Was able to play in 3 1/2 hours . Everyone having a fun time. Greens and tee boxes in great shape. A bit wet in spots due to all the rain and short daylight hours but expected this time of year and all courses here. Played well thanks to the awesome pace of play.

Tough to find our way around. Course, range all over the place. Cart paths under demolition, construction. Layout nice but soggy and muddy.. cart path only on many holes made it a long day. People at course and snack bar nice.

Let Down

Course is usually in good shape but the greens were burned out and diseased. Understand it was hot and no rain in late July so a few courses around here lost their greens. Need to tell the patrons when they show up. Also ridiculous pace of play. Normally its fast Took five hours because we were behind these four rednecks. They were wandering around all over the place , searching for balls for five to ten minutes, driving backwards and blasting music. Held up the entire course. 10:26 tee time and finished around 3:20 PM.Won't be rushing back any time soon.

Course was in great shape. Staff was prepared, friendly and helpful. Love the change in elevation of the course. Fairways are wide , yet challenging and tricky in the wind. Greens were nicely rolled and it helped I was playing great.
