With the Hot Deal and rewards from past hot deals I paid $32 with a cart to go mid afternoon on a Thursday. Nobody else was in my tee time so I played solo. The threesome in front of me let me play thru no issues after a few holes, eventually caught the group in front of them and rode it out for the last few holes. Still played under 4 hrs 15.

Greens are some of the best you’ll find on a public course. I few spots need some TLC on the course but every course has a few. GPS on cart, short range area, grass range, true practice green. Valet bag to and from the parking lot. Signage on the course can leave you to get turned around in a couple spots if you aren’t sure where you’re going. Water jugs were on course as well as cart (she even accepted Venmo if you left cash in the car like an idiot).

Some fun golf holes, and shots that you get to play with the green speeds. Very good target golf course; if you spray and pray then you’ll have a rough time. A few sizeable forced carry shots that would make a mid to high handicap a long day.

For the value of the Hot deal price, unbelievable. I’ll keep coming back to burn rewards here. For a weekend peak price and a 5 hour round? I’m not paying that much to do that anywhere.

Course was in great shape,. Locals I was playing with said greens were running slow, if they say so. Sand traps were only thing that left something to be desired but heavy rain at the end of last week. Not a long course, most holes are straight away. Small greens, elevation changes, sloped fairways. Format is open enough to avoid losing too many balls, but holes on top of one another contributes to pace of play. No blue tees but white tees were back at the tips on some holes. Staff were great.

Top class all the way around; a little expensive but you get what you pay for. ATM in clubhouse wasn’t working and my GPS on cart wasn’t working, but both issues were resolved. Beverage cart was cash only which is what it is. Only 4 stars for value because you can pay significantly less at other courses to get a similar golf experience; which not everyone goes for. But I go golfing for the actual golf and not all the periphery stuff. Layout was challenging; course conditions were great.

Much lower price point than a course of their quality would normally be. Didn’t use any off course amenities so I can’t speak to those.

Best value for your money in the area, let me get that out of the way first. Course conditions are always fine; it’s not Bulle Rock or Mountain Branch, but the greens are up there with those more prestigious courses in the area. Practice range is ok, irons only; not that it is really enforced, causing problems on 1st tee, 2nd green and 9th fairway/green.
Course itself is challenging but fair, many holes are stacked next to one another; causing back ups on different holes as people look for their balls two holes over, thus causing the groups on those holes a delay as well. This brings me to the negative, pace of play. If you aren’t off early it’s a 4.5 hour round on a good day, have had rounds pushing 5.5 hrs. Given the layout it is going to happen; but specially at the value.
But overall it is a good course that is a great value.

Tees from 5500 yds to almost 7300. If you want to take on Ruggles from the tips, good luck its a long track. Pretty wide open and receptive to wayward tee shots, but too wayward and its gone. Very walkable i might add, and can even do so on weekends.

Most recently the conditions have been ok. Greens almost always roll true, can be spotty at times depending on weather. Recently redid the sand in all the bunkers.

Staff is generally friendly. But this isnt a Disney course and everyone has a bad day. Food is respectable and nice bar area. Driving range is there, thats about all i can say.

Its not Bulle Rock or Mountain Branch but a suitable alternative if you dont want to pay for either of them.

Had an early tee time on a Saturday morning, booked online. No problems checking in, or getting started.

Short course, takes the driver out of your hand for longer hitters. Grass spotty in some areas, but most ho-hum courses are that way. Wind made the round more fun, a calm day and this course would get eaten alive. Undulating greens make for some fun putts.

The cart path (gravel road) was washed out in some areas. But not bad for a gravel cart path.

Holes are on top of one another, so keep your head up and ears open for wayward shots from other groups.

Overall it wasnt a bad experience, another ok golf course with some highs and some lows.
