Much Better

Last previous experience was a couple of years ago. Course conditions now much improved. Lots of water makes this short course much more challenging than you might think.

Better than most!

Aside from the poor cart paths we enjoyed the course. Fairways thin in places but very playable. Greens in good shape with lots of undulations and fast from above the hole. Challenging layout with water in play on several holes but not without bail out opportunities. Will definitely play again soon.

Play it again Sam

Nice layout with some challenging elevation changes, but playable for all skill levels. Just pick the right tee. Some greens are a little thin and worn out in certain areas. We enjoyed playing them today and hope the course super can prevent deterioration in the future.

Once relatively easy - Now Diabolical

Having played here many times in years past our group was amazed to find the course so difficult to play now. The fairways and greens are well maintained. However, the greens are so fast that we were unable to hit anything easy enough to prevent running way past the hole. The overgrown natural areas have effectively narrowed the course substantially and created blind landing areas from several tees. The rough is thick and much deeper than I remembered. I had great difficulty hitting from it as did the others in the foursome. None of us scored near our usual expectations.

Longer Par 4s

First time here. Nicely maintained course on a scenic property in country setting. Challenging, longish par 4s and 3s with some undulating greens that were quick but not crazy fast. Lots of mature oaks line the course but fairways generous enough to provide confidence off the tee. Enjoyed first round here and looking forward to many more.

Course is challenging but not crazy and in very nice shape. Bunkers have deeper, softer sand than I like. A little too hard to play from.

Under rated

Well maintained course with some diabolical greens. Very quick from above the hole. Except for 2 or 3 holes, layout pretty straightforward but with some challenging elevation changes on this hilly property.

Missing 9

Course was in Ok shape over all but greens are showing lots of crab grass tufts. Did not know that the back 9 has been deleted until we tried to find number 10. This course has been permanently reduced to 9 holes. There was no indication of this on GolfNow when I booked. The idea is that you play the old front 9 twice; the second 9 from a different tee than the first 9. This concept was only explained to us after we completed the first 9. There was no mention of the change at check in. I don't know if there was signage I missed.

One complaint

While we were on a reasonable 4 hour pace and keeping up with the group ahead, the group of residents playing behind us were pushing constantly. It was clear they play the course frequently and from a forward tee. The resident group apparently coerced the ranger into telling us we needed to "pick up the pace." As mentioned above, we knew we were on a 4 hour pace and, in fact, finished right at 4 hours. I suggest remind the residents/members that non-resident play puts cash in the till and helps keep the course in business. If you don't want us "slowing play," go private!

Good Value

Played here many times in the past. Today found the course in the best condition I've seen. Obviously the staff has been putting in effort and dollars to improve conditions. It could use a good deal of additional help but they seem to be headed in the right direction. Fairways and greens are improved but still too many bare spots, especially along the edges. Good value though for the price.
