Good value municipal course

Super fast greens with many challenging undulations and tough pin locations make this course more difficult than you would think based on slope rating. Overall, requires use of most clubs in the bag with several different doglegs. worth a play

Not worth the $$

Cons:
*Horrible cart paths with stones and gravel, not paved
*No clear signs of what hole you’re on or where the next hole is.
* No ball washers at any tee boxes
* No water stations throughout course
* No cart service
* Halfway house didn’t have ANY food at 11am
* No GPS carts

Pros:
*Friendly staff and rangers
* greens were in good condition and rolled true
* fairways were in good condition
* rough was thick
* handicap indexes incorrect and seemed completely opposite. 1 was easiest and 17 was 2nd hardest..

Great course and conditions.

Friendly staff and rangers. Great layout. Great conditions. Good bar and food options. Cart girls often around. Amazing GPS monitors with big screens and fly over videos of each hole. Only negative would be lacking a grass range, but that might have been only that day due to rain.

Pace of play issues

We were on the green of hole 5 and one hour into our round when a ranger came up to our 3 some and said to pick up the pace because we were well behind the group ahead of us. When I told him we teed off two groups behind the group in front due to a no show ahead of us he didn’t even listen and told us to play ready golf, which we always do. by the 10th hole we had two groups on the course ahead of us while we waited to tee off and then waited the entire back 9, yet no ranger was to be found to pick up pace. This guy was completely out of line and disrespectful. Other than that I would recommend the course.

Not worth the hype.

Only One cart girl today which we haven’t seen and we’re on our replay of 18 already! The restaurant at the clubhouse isn’t open and the grill at the turn at 11am didn’t even have any hot food available. The bartender at the turn is a retired teacher and the mom of an employee at the pro shop. She has no clue how to make any cocktails. If you miss a fairway you’ll be hunting for your ball forever and forced to drop. I’ve never lost so many balls on a course before. Not worth $115 a round. Very disappointed with my first experience here at a top 20 rated course

Save your money!

Upon arriving to the proshop/food pickup desk, there was no greeting by the staff. I had a prepaid tee time for 18 holes with cart through golfnow, but the young woman at the desk was adamant I had to pay for a cart and that I surely did not sign up for a cart. She refused to listen to me or look at my phone that had the reservation and receipt on it. It was the Most unprofessional experience I’ve had at a golf course. She finally looked at my confirmation and said you’re all set, without any direction on how to obtain a cart or where to go. The course overall is in horrible condition with narrow holes that are hugging each other. When you need fences between holes you know you’re at an awful course. The fairways and rough are the same length without any change in length. Balls are constantly being sprayed onto the hole you’re playing by neighboring golfers. The greens have divots all over and are in poor condition too. Overall, I’d never play here again even if it was free. Horrible experience
