I would have rated this course five stars, but had two out of our two golf carts die on the course. And were held up by the group in front of us because they had one golf cart that also die, and then there replacement cart died before it could finish the round.
GET SOME NEW CARTS THAT RUN.

The course is going through aeration on the greens. We played the first 9 holes twice. On the third hole there was an equipment vehicle left in front on the ladies tee box. We looked around for the employee to move it out of the way , but no one was around. I am not a professional by any means, but to try and drive your ball up and over a big grass equipment cutter was very frustrating and upsetting. Golf is all about concentrating on your shot!
On the 5th hole, I was on the fairway addressing my ball ready to hit when a tractor just plowed on through about 15 ft. from me with a load of sand. The employee didn’t even think to stop and wait for me to hit.
A friend joined us on us on the fifth hole, so we then had a foursome. They paid $88.00 for 12 holes under these conditions. We paid $50.00 with golf now. It is a beautiful course when you can play all 18 holes without obstacles.
The manager was very kind and listened to my concerns, however, no compensation was offered to the person who had to pay the full price for playing half the course under frustrating conditions.

Every time I golf and there are two guys working the office, I know it’s going to be a late start.
Case in point, my husband and I were ready to tee off. We had another 20 minutes before are scheduled time.
I watch the tee box for literally 10mins. and no one was up there. The previous group (4 some) had already played off and they were coming the first green. No names were called over the speaker, I guess they were too busy chatting or eating nuts inside. I ask if we could go off earlier, since no one was at the first tee box. They gave me a lengthy answer telling me other people had times before us even though no one was there. After that discussion they finally called a group of 4 to the first tee and we were set up with another twosome behind them.
The group of four guys were still waiting for someone and they went to get something to eat and drink and bring back to the golf cart. When they finally got back and went up to the first tee box I ask them what time was their tee time. The guy told 1:20 pm and it was already 1:43pm.
If only you had a starter out there watching and calling people consistently. Others would get to go off on time!
The club house has been so lazy and allowing people to go off when they want, because no one in the office cares to do their job by calling golfers to the tee and keeping the pace efficient.
I sincerely hope that this review get to someone other than management, because they’re doing a lousy job.

The pace of 18 holes was very good. No waiting on any of the holes for other golfers.
All the greens and fairways seem to be in good shape . Very few hazards.

The two gentlemen in the golf shop were more interested in eating their sandwiches than attending to calling players up to the first tee. My husband and I got a bucket of balls to hit. There was no one waiting to tee off. When I returned after 15 mins or so there was still no one teeing off or ready to go. I personally never heard the guys in the golf shop calling anyone to the first tee to tee off. I actually went into the golf shop and ask if they were calling out the names of the next party to tee off?. The guy put down his sandwich are said we were up next. He than called our name over the speaker, I guess to appease me or get rid of me?
Please put some women in the golf shop to stay on time and call out players to get ready.

First nine we were able to tee off a little earlier do to smooth play.
Mid to late afternoon has the tendency to slow down to a bottle neck on the 10th hole..
Overall, pretty close to a four hour 18 hole game. Ver enjoyable.

Not sure why GolfNow has this course listed. It is not open to the public, I called and that is what I was told. You must have a special arm service card or be a veteran.

There was a shortage and confusion with golf carts and finding keys to a cart.
Golfers were piling up on the first nine holes, while the back nine holes looked clear and wide open. Why couldn’t they start some groups on the back nine and some on the first to get things moving.
I didn’t see one golf Marshall out there trying to speed groups up.

When I got to the course light rain started,but you could see blue skies after the brief shower.
Because of the prior three days of rain I was informed that there were No Carts going out.
They gave us a pull cart for are round.
They should give you the option of either playing or some kind of “Rebate for the cart”, we all know that they charge for carts because it benefits the course in making money.
Golfers should get a CREDIT.
