Great course, tight layout

All course conditions were excellent from tee to green. Both the rough and course layout punish mishits. If you can stay in the fairways, you will be able to keep your score low. Anything else, fuggedaboutit. For a flatlander golf course, there are excellent elevation changes making the course pretty beautiful and interesting. One of my favorite courses.

Excellent course

I can easily recommend this course to anyone. Beautiful course, perfectly maintained. Very, very few bad spots on the course. The area can be a bit windy, so check the weather. Otherwise, you cannot go wrong with Paiutr!

In need of maintenance

For $25, this is not worth it. Poor conditions on nearly every surface (tees, greens) and not very well lit for night play. The first time that played this course was several months ago, and the conditions were marginally better but still poor. Nice practice facility, but for golf there are far better choices. Angel Park is much better for night-time golf, and cheaper as well. I will probably not play here again based on my two rounds here.

Great course, will play again!

Very well maintained course with very tough greens. There are no traditional sand-filled bunkers on this course, but grassy "bunkers". Sort of different, but other wise a great course. Fairways, rough, and greens were all in great shape, with the exception of a few minor bad spots on a couple of greens. Nice layout, lots of old trees, and friendly staff. I will definitely play here again, it was a good experience. Note that the course does not have sprinklers, only nature to keep the course green. There has been a lot of rain this year, so everything was fine. I suspect that previous bad condition reviews may have been during a long dry spell.

A nice course in need of better care....

This could be a beautiful course, but seems to be very worn down. The "Clubhouse" is completely closed and looks very run-down. The carts were okay, most greens were okay, but the fairways and rough was very dry and sometimes beat up. The bunkers needed a lot of care also. It is not due to dry weather, simply poor care. A shame - could be a really nice place!

A lot of poor course conditions, but great staff.

Nice staff, facilities were okay, and the carts were okay. A lot of brunt out areas of grass, but particularly irritating was the turf around many greens; like hitting off of packed dirt with a few weeds growing out of it. If you can play cheap, give it a try.
