The greens were aerated and they were very bumpy! The course did not communicate this information either on social media or even at the course!

The pace of play was rather slow. Unfortunately, there was no marshals! But, being the holiday weekend, I can understand.
The bunkers on the course are HORRIBLE. They have no sand in them & have mostly weeds growing. Though from a distance it looks like grass.
The green fees are rather high, for that price we can ask something a little well maintained bunkers at least!
Though it’s still early in the season, this course does NOT maintain their bunkers, even in the middle of the season!

Though the course was in decent condition the sand traps were horrible! We would state that they should be nicknamed as “dirt traps” rather than sand traps. Some had weeds, water, grass growing in them! Disappointed on those but the rest of the course seemed to be in decent shape!

They don’t care!

This course will be closing on October 14, 2019. This land will become a space to build homes. So, the maintenance has been completely non existent. The traps has standing water from a week ago. The greens have not been cut. The gras on the greens are about 1/2 inch long. The rough is worse & has clover leaves growing.

Please don’t waste your money unless you want to have a round to remember as a keepsake memory!

First time in the month of March

The fairways were not that great! They were hard as a rock or hitting from a driveway or road, no grass at all. If those are conditions then they should post or announce and charge a little less than $90.00 for a round. That is a little ridiculous and you guys are using Jack’s name in vain in order to increase revenue. I know that vacationers like to boast that they played a Nicklaus course but you are just being unfair when you charge that much when the course condition are below “par” (pun intended)!
