I’m only a 3rd year golfer, but from what I’ve seen, this is the best course around these parts. Got a hot deal and saved a few bucks but I’d gladly pay full price in the future.

I guess if you get this on a hot deal it’s worth it if you live close. Even then it wouldn’t be my first choice. The tee boxes are lumpy and full of sand and dirt. The fairway is indistinguishable from the rough and there are clumps of grass missing everywhere you look, and the grass that is there look more like weeds than actual grass. The ground is so hard they must not have watered yet this month (it’s the 25th). Imagine playing on a lumpy sheet of glass and that’s exactly what it’s like to play here. I did hit a tee shot with my 6 iron over 220 yards as it rolled on the hard lumpy ground like a hybrid golf/plinko game. How this place is even in business is incredible. How it doesn’t have a lower review score is equally as crazy.

Hard to differentiate between fairway and rough on some holes, but for this time of year it was in pretty good shape. Greens were a bit slow but that’s to be expected. Only played the back 9 so I can only speak of those holes, but even with rain and snow thaw it wasn’t overly muddy or wet. I think it’s 14 that develops a bit of a lake in the middle of the fairway, but besides that it has drained well.

Also, side not, the pro shop looks to be under construction, and there are only hotdogs and snacks available.

This is by far one of the most beautiful back drops you will find in this area. You’d be hard pressed to find something nicer than this place in that regard. That being said, this place needs some work. If you are looking to play a serious round of golf look elsewhere because you will be disappointed. There are currently only 9 holes as of 4/22/19 and it’s walking only. However, there are a few pushcarts available free of charge. The course was taken over by new owners last year after a negligent owner ruined this course. The fairways are pretty patchy and the greens are fried and VERY slow. But I can tell they have been giving it A LOT of love and attention. This would be a great place to play a casual round at a very cheap price. Maybe bring the kids and get them out there swinging, or drag your lady out for a stress free round of golf. I’m definitely keeping this course on my radar for times like these, and looking forward to see what these guys can do in the coming few years. If they pull this place together it will be an awesome course to play, there is no doubt about that. For now, keep it in your back pocket for a practice spot.
