Beautiful setting

Lots of hills, rolling fairways but there was more mud than grass in them, not green at all, must be all Bermuda. Had to pick the ball to hit it or you got a mud shot. Lots of bunkers, very hard, Long course, suggest you play forward tees for beginners. Greens were in great shape. Multiple tee boxes were great, lots of options for varied skilled players. Will be going back once the fairways fill in and green up.

Nice Setting, Terrible Shape

The course is in horrible shape. No sand in any of the
bunkers, greens patchy, fairways barely mowed, tee boxes are like hitting out of the rough and "hay-like" grass in the rough, mid-calf high. It has been allowed to grow back to wild, one par 3, #15 I believe, you cannot even see the green because the brush has been allowed to grow so high in the waste area between the tee and the green. This used to be a beautiful course. Now it will go bankrupt like Prince George Golf Course did recently. What a shame.

Lush and well maintained over all.

Greens were perfect, fairways nice and rough was reasonable. Backside has more water, most not in play once you figure out where it is. Was hard to find the greens the first time there. Slow 5 some held us up all day and nobody seemed to fix ball marks or rake traps any where. Locals "run" the course it seems and do what they want, ran carts everywhere regardless of signs. No rangers on the course. The course is nice but will eventually deteriorate if rules are not enforce. Loved the course and the staff.

Nice layout for a public course

Pace of play was much better this time, played here before with some problems. Like the layout, some short but
deceptive holes, pretty rolling hills in places.

Excellent course

The course was in great shape, staff friendly, greens were best in the area I've seen this year. Fairways and tee boxes in great shape.

Only down side was the Marshall asking us to pick up the pace on the 14th hole when the group behind us was never on the same hole as us at all. We played 18 in 3 hours, (two of us), so we were not slow. Kind of took some of the bloom off the good day otherwise.

Greens need lots of work.

Many greens were in bad shape, but better than they were a couple months ago, seems like they are trying to do something. The Seniors and Ladies tee boxes were a mess but the fairways were in good shape. Almost no real sand in any bunker. Good course to work on your game if you don't take your score there too seriously.

Good tune up course!

Staff super friendly and helpful. Course was is good condition overall, a few spot on some green, but not bad at all. Nice course for working on your short irons, wide fairways on the few Par 4 & 5"s.

Great for beginners and experienced a like. It was our first time here but will definitely be back soon.
