I have played this course since it opened, typically 2-5 times a year. The course has come a long way since I played it in the spring. The greens, fairways, and bunkers were in good shape.
Pace of Play is always an issue. I played as a single mid-day and it took me 3hours to play 9 holes. Other players on the course were jumping around trying to find an open spot to play faster. (this happened to me 2 times while playing)

I think on busy days a ranger would be nice just to keep the course moving and prevent other players from jumping all over the course and creating more problems.

Water jugs and a beverage cart would be nice as well on busy days.

I've played this golf course 8 times this year and it is always slow! It took us 2:52 to play 9-holes. The only reason we didn't walk off the course was it was a nice day and we hadn't played golf in a few weeks.

We saw the ranger one time and he was filling up water coolers on the course. MAYBE, he should focus on the pace of play instead of water!

When we went in after we played to say something to the golf shop staff their exact comment was "its a Sunday and its always slow on the weekends!"

If you know that fix the problem. My normal group of guys have decided not to play here on the weekends anymore. We don't 5+ hours to play golf.

my only questions are.....

Who trains the starter? Why would a starter send out 4, 2-domes in a row instead of pairing groups up. Don't they know that creates a jam on the course which slows pace of play up immensely.

Why have a ranger if they sit under a tree texting on their phone when it takes 2:55 to play 9-holes.

Ridiculous slow. Not worth playing on the weekends unless you have 3+hours to play 9 holes

My advice is that you do not play here.
There are several reasons why:
1. NO WHERE TO PARK. I parked in a grass lot near the front gate. When I asked the pro shop employee (Austin was his name) he said "we are busy and you are lucky you got a spot!" Thats not a good start to my round!
2. The carts are terrible. They look like they are from 1970. Dirty, slow, (mine barely started) a lot of wear and tear.
3. The golf course is not worth it! I met the Superintendent Keith. WOW this guy likes to talk and thinks highly of himself. He kept telling me how great the course was but to be honest, it is short, easy, terrible tee boxes and terrible bunkers. He told me that they are re-doing the bunkers but have only done 4. I was in one of the new bunkers…what a joke! There was about 15-inches of sand in it! Hey Keith…Learn to do your job. And learn to walk away and NOT bother customers like you are a fan of their golf swing.
4. the food is terrible! I ordered a 1/2 cooked hotdog, a warm Gatorade. (i asked the employee at the 1/2 way house why it was warm. Her response was: "thats what you wanted so don't complain.") REALLY!!!???!!
5. At the end of my round I met one of the owners. Bill I think. I thought he was a homeless man eating in the bar & grill. WOW…..I told him about my round and what I felt of the course and he just walked a way and said (I think he said this walking way) "I can't please everyone."

Long story short….stay way from this place. They should bulldoze the place and make it houses because the people running it don't know what they are doing! I'd rather hit golf balls in a park somewhere instead of playing here again!

This course is SO bad do not waste your time playing it!
There are several reasons why:
1. Terrible condition. You can not see what is the fairway and what is the rough because they mow it the same length.
2. NO sand in the bunkers yet the Superintendent (which I met) kept telling me how great of a job he does….what a joke!
3. I teed off at 7:00am, I got done with 9-holes at 9:00am, BUT there was NO one working the half-way house. I spoke to a manager after I golfed and they said that the family daughter works thats 1/2 way house and she was TO HUNG-OVER TO WORK???? really!!!!!!
4. The rangers don't seem to do much. They kept driving around my group almost like I was a PGA Tour player….ODD????

This course is a dumb and I won't play there again if they paid me too.
