The guy in the pro shop was rude and in helpful. They don’t care about you if you’re not a member. I arrived an hour before my tee time and saw there were 3 foursomes that we’re going to be in front of me so I asked to go out before them and was told no, that he had “no control over that.” Was told I was starting on the new 9 they had built. ALL GREENS had been previously worked and sucked hitting into and putting on. The ball would land and bounce up and run off. Tee boxes weren’t cut down, no sand in bunkers. There was no ice in ANY of the water jugs, and tasted just like a rubber water hose. There was no “cart girl” or anyone driving around checking pace of play or selling food and drinks. At the turn I ordered a burger that took 25 minutes to make. The guy in there was rude and was only concerned with talking to the older ladies that were there and who were members of course. It was a bad experience overall. I played by myself and had to skip 4 holes because the pace of play was so bad. Luckily I got a cheap price through GolfNow, because I received bad/rude service and a bad taste in my mouth for the course and their employees.

Greens were aeriated, so putting was difficult. When you would putt it would bounce a little but not to bad. Because of this we were granted a lower green fee of $45. Great friendly staff, tough layout that will challenge every club in your bag. One thing I really like is the unlimited free range balls they offer. Heavily guarded greens with bunkers.

I booked to play the Nicklaus course 2 weeks in advance for 3 players as they advised. We came from Oklahoma to find out they had closed the Nicklaus course the day before to trench around the greens for “maitenece”. No phone call and notification saying they were doing that. Also, the driving range was closed due to the previous rain. The lady in the office didn’t even know that the range was closed. So once we paid, they said we could go ahead and play the Meadows course, which isn’t the one we traveled here to play, it was super frustrating. The tee boxes and fairways were in good shape but the greens were half dead and SUPER SLOW!! It was cart path and rough only for the carts. They were accommodating to our situation a little. They allowed us bring our own drink bag in. Also, don’t expect to go to the clubhouse for anything at the turn because the turn is on the opposite side of the course. Overall it wasn’t the worse course I’ve played, however it was a major let down because we traveled far to play this specific Nicklaus course and couldn’t after we booked 2 weeks in advance and were forced to play The Meadows which wasn’t really in good shape either. Don’t waste your money here. Go somewhere else and play a much better course in the area, they’re are a lot better options around here.

Overall it was nice. Very good layout, lots of water and fairway bunkers. Staff was very friendly and nice clubhouse. The fairways were nice considering the weather we have had, still a little yellow but that's to be expected. The greens however had a lot of dead spots, which allowed the ball on the putts to jump and bounce. Could use more work on practice putting area that was in bad shape. This course challenges you with different shots, tough pin placements and slopes of the greens. The houses on the course are beautiful and the scenery is nice, it will definitely be an awesome to play in the summer with all the flowers and trees coming alive. Although it seems to be out in the middle of nowhere it is quite and peaceful and definitely worth the drive.

I set a Tee Time and drove all the way there and they were wanting 40 dollars to play on all sand greens. The guy who was in the pro shop was not very friendly and I just felt they were greedy and I will never go back nor will I ever recommend anyone else. Awful experience.
