The weather was PERFECT! The good news is that we had the opportunity to tee off as a two-some. The 4 players that we caught up to let us play through and we finished our round in about 3 hours and 15 minutes!
The cart was included in our round but we chose to walk both for the exercise and with it being cart path only getting to play faster! This day couldn’t have been better! Greens and fairways were in great shape! So happy we got to play the course as a two some and had the best round in about 20 years!
Seeing ducklings that had just been born this morning was a bonus!

This round was tainted by the fact that it was 95 degrees and we had a prepaid round which included a golf cart AND when we got there were told it was cart path ONLY! I booked the prepaid round, at a nice price but was NEVER told that on one of the hottest days of the year you really have to walk twice as far as actually walking the course when it is cart path only. Unfortunately, I didn’t come prepared to walk. They should tell you prior to booking if it is cart path ONLY! It seems reasonable to have a 90 degree rule during hot weather but not cart path only. I never would have booked this round knowing it was cart path only.
One of the bad things about cart path only is that people don’t fill divots because the sand is on the cart 50 years away on the golf cart on the path. That makes the course suffer and a result, the course is in worse shape. There were a lot of divots in the fairway, it’s a shame. Ghost creek is a nice layout but I am not eager to go back, even at the price I paid.

Poor Redtail! This is a municipal golf course. It has a nice driving range with appropriately priced golf balls, a really well stocked golf shop and an excellent teaching staff.
I signed up for the hot price of $15 plus GN fee totaling less than $18 for 18 holes. It was a great value!
It took the person 4 times to ask my name after showing the reservation information on my phone three times and 2 staff members to check me in.
Once headed to the first tee, I checked for score cards at the first tee, none were in the box so I headed back to the shop to get a score card. When I asked where they were I was told , they are normally on the cart. I said I was walking. I also asked if they wanted me to put some out there, trying to be helpful and the staff person said, the starter would do it. I said there isn't a starter. No comment from her, no answer or thanks for the offer. Hmmm, ok. I took my card and headed back out.
Sign says play winter rules. Good thing!
We have had a really wet winter. It has been horrible. The fairways had grass as long as 6 inches in places and the rough was even longer.
The reason I say poor Redtail is they don't control the weather and it has been too wet to mow.
We caught up to the twosome in a cart on hole 5. Watching them look for their balls, then hit 3 balls each on the next par 3 hole. They let us play through on hole 7 thankfully, after we asked them to speed up.
Suffice it to say, the course conditions were rough and understandably long grass. Glad I didn't pay more for this round. It was exhausting pushing my cart through that wet ground.
The course layout is nice but staff is rough around the edges. It has great potential and is in a great location. I don't think I will play there again. The last time I was there it took too long on a sunny day. It is so easy to train the staff to be nice, say thank you, etc. that's the easy part, making it rain less is impossible.
