Under Construction

Hold off playing here. They are now only a 9 hole course with the rest of the area having high end houses being built. While some of the holes are ok, there is reconstruction going on and the course overall is not in the best of shape.

Course needs a ranger

It took over 5 1/2 hours to play 18. The foursome in front of us had at least 2 open holes (we couldn't see if there were more). Someone if front of them kept leaving cigarette butts on the greens...are you kidding me? When we turned in the cart, we were told that they don't have rangers, something I think they need to reconsider! We went to The Back Nine afterwards, which got very busy on a Friday. While the lobster rolls ordered were ok, they certainly weren't worth the $25 per plate charge. Our fault for not asking what the price of this special was before ordering.

Fast greens

Course is in pretty good shape. Greens are very fast and don't hold approach shots. Landing before greens and rolling up is recommended, but a number of holes have green side bunkers making it a challenge. Tee boxes need to be numbered for new golfers and signs directing golfers to next hole is needed. Luckily we joined up with a single behind us, otherwise we would have definitely played the wrong hole.

Not worth the money.

Greens are terrible. Evidently this winter was harsh with a January thaw and then refreeze. Other courses in the area have addressed and fixed much better than this course. It might be better in another month, but for now, don't waste your money.
