Excellent layout but.....

The course had a very nice flow to it and the layout was great. There's not many bunkers to challenge you however, there is plenty of water strategically placed that offers you plenty of challenges. I wouldn't recommend playing this course until the grass turns green, the fairways were almost non existent, it felt like I was just hitting off of dirt. The greens were in good shape and rolled true, they were also lightning fast, I would say about a 12 on the meters. Overall this course has potential to be great, I would just like to play it again once everything greens up to see if the fairways improve. For the price I would definitely not play it in the winter again, although during the summer it seems to be a decent price.

No longer a hidden gem

I played this course in a tournament and was really looking forward to it. When I got to the community entrance and seen the guard that had to let me in and the beautiful houses, I thought for sure this would have to be a well maintained course...boy was I wrong about that. The fairways were completely dead and it was just like hitting of dirt that was hard as a rock, the greens were in decent shape if you can miss all the unfepaired ball marks. Another thing that is terrible about the layout is the fact the houses are literally right off the cart path, this place is riddle with white stakes and if you aren't very accurate off the tee, you will have a miserable time here. I told myself after playing this course that I will never play it again, unless they start maintaining it better.

Not what I thought

I recently played this Davis Love designed course for a tournament and let me tell you, it was not what I expected at all. I arrived at the gated community and thought this place has got to be nice looking at all the gorgeous houses and security guard at the main entrance. Once I got on the course the fairways were dead and brown, it really felt like you hitting off of dirt as there really wasn't much grass at all. This course demands that you hit your drives straight, it is riddled with houses and the white stakes that line the course near those houses seem to be right off of the cart path. This gives you no room to miss at all. The greens were pretty decent minus the fact that no one seems to ever repair their ball marks. All in all I will say that I will not be back to play this course anytime soon, I have better playing conditions at my local municipal golf course for half the price.

Great bang for the buck

I play this course on a regular basis and I have to say, for a municipal course this place is in great shape. I have played some pretty terrible municipal courses in my life but this one is well maintained. The pace of play is kind of slow and sometimes you get the group that has 5 people and won't let you play through. This course is not that long and plays very fair for all hitters. I am a fairly long hitter so I usually play the tips and still manage mid to short irons into the greens off the tee, except for a couple of the par 5's. They just recently moved into their renovated club house which is in excellent condition, the food is on point and I make sure to eat there every time I golf. I would definitely recommend this course to someone to play.
