Very poor conditions

Played twilight here. A number of holes have very poor greens, dead and no grass. Fairways are very dry. Clearly they are not watering the course and on the greens they may have over fertilized it leading to dead patches.

Probably won’t play here again this year

Regardless of the lack of water, the course is in general disrepair.

It is in VERY POOR condition and not worth the money

Hi just a friendly reply,

I’ve played the course many times and have spoken to various staff members. The course is on protected land by the government for the green belt. They do water the course but have a limited supply to the amount of water they can pull without receiving a large. If it is a dry summer, they will have some dyer areas just as you would with your lawn.

Hope this clarifies things!

Excellent course, First time playing

Absolutely loved this golf course. It is challenging in some areas, forgiving in others. Pace of play was just over 4hrs, which is basically unheard of during Covid.
I hope to play this course again this season.

Thanks for the round!

Course is struggling

The course is dry, which is understanding based on the weather. However we have had rain as of late. Short approach shots are difficult, like hitting off a pizza box.....

Great course, can't wait to play it again

Really enjoyed playing this course. I'm going to have to get back and play it again. Greens are challenging with a lot of undulations and the ball can easily roll off the sides and back.
Nice layout.

Interesting course. Challenging for the first time

Very nice and scenic course. Course conditions were the best I've played this season. Layout is challenging, with a lot of elevation changes through the course.
I will play this course again.

Course was good, tough pin placements

Good overall round, a little slower for a late Sunday tee time.
Some tough pin placements today.

Needs course marshall

Pace was okay for a Sunday morning, however you still CAN NOT have a group of 5 walking together, at 7am on a fully booked Sunday morning.
In addition, twosome walking cut between us and the group in front, resulting in us waiting on the 17th and 18th.

I’m not sure if they were members and felt they can do what they want, but with lack of tee times, someone should be out monitoring all groups.

Great evening of golf

Course was in good condition, a bit of issues on some greens, but otherwise very nice.
Pace was good in the evening as not many people had golfed in the afternoon.

Great course, excellent staff

The round was wet to start due to heavy rain, but the course cleared up well around the 3rd hole.
The course is in excellent shape, grounds crew were respectful, polite and considerate.
Front shop staff were helpful and friendly.

I'll be playing this course a couple of times this season for sure. Highly recommend it.

Nice course, rough greens

Course fairways are nice and lush, however numerous greens are struggling. As much as you could blame the weather this year, I’ve played a number of lower end courses with excellent greens.

I’d like to play this course again in the fall when the greens have improved and are rolling well.

Great course, excellent greens

Great course, some reviews and people I’ve spoken with talk about the poor cart path conditions, but with the elevation changes and all the rain, what can you expect. Maybe 3-4 paths are washed out, but if you drive properly, you won’t have an issue.

One piece of advice.... mark the pins with front, middle and back flags. There are a number of elevated and multi tiered greens, knowing where the pin is located can be helpful.
