Will make annual trip

We have had lots of rain lately and the course was def wet, however it was very playable, the course was well maintained and the staff couldn't have been any nicer. Probably the best clubhouse staff I have encountered. They just finsihed a tournament that day so the clubhouse was pack and the atmosphere was really lively. All the customers were in a good mood the music was playing loud and it wasn't what I expected from a golf clubhouse. It was a really good vibe in there. I will have to return to play again. The 9th hole par 3 is a beast! I was by myself so I didn't stay for any food although it did smell and look very good, really wish I ate there!

Very Challenging

I played here for the first time. I had a great time, the course is in amazing conditions and the greens are very quick. The water comes in to play on many holes. I found myself only playing my driver on maybe 4-5 holes. The tall grass can get you just as easy as the water can. I played white tees first round and blues second round. I would recommend playing your 3/5 wood off most par 5s. They look long but play short.

Great place to play!

Don't be fooled the fareways are very wide but you can still miss them pretty easily. I had an awesome time here. One thing I don't like is I only use my driver on 1 hole on the front nine, and that is the 9th hole. Other then that I can't complain. Greens are nice and fast also. We spotted about 6 fawns and 2 does on the west end of the course. There are a lot of hills and blind shots.
