Good value.

Probably the best word overall to describe this course is fun. Short from a yardage standpoint, but enough challenge in the way of water hazard placement to make you think a bit about club selection at multiple holes. I’m not a low handicapper, so for me it was perfect. Tree lined fairways, although wide on most spots, forced you to stay reasonably on track. For the price of less than $40 for 18 holes with a cart, I will definitely come back.

The fairways were well maintained, but my observation of the greens matches the reviews of many others....I’ve never seen so many unrepaired ball marks on a course. When I wanted to fix mine, I couldn’t even locate where they were. Also, the cart paths need some stone and gravel thrown down - there were way too many potholes that were tough to avoid.

Good value

Other reviews of this course seem quite accurate to me. Short course (only 2 sets of tees), but the layout is challenging. Water plays into most holes and very few holes are straight. Greens are small with some tricky pin placements on the day we played. For the time of year, I was pleased with the overall conditions. One other review that I saw mentioned the poor cart path conditions, which was absolutely true. The asphalt path in many spots felt a lot like our current Michigan roads!! Eventually I just started driving on the side of them because it was so bumpy.
Pace of play was pretty slow, but the frost delay to start was a factor in that.
Cart paths aside, still avoid value for the price we paid (which wasn’t even a hot deal).
