Good greens and lots of bunkers

This is a fun course to play. Fairways and greens are in very good shape with lots of well placed bunkers to challenge the accuracy of your tee shots. Par 3's are a challenging length and bunker protected. I would recommend this course and would play it again.

GREAT VALUE

Greens a little patchy but fast. Layout is good with water hazards and sand traps. Got paired up with a staff member ( Eric ). A great guy to play with. I would definitely recommend this course and certainly play again especially at this rate.

GREAT VALUE

Just over seeded recently. Cart path and rough only and still played in about 3 hours and 15 minutes. Grass on the fairways still a little long so ball not rolling out which makes for longer approach shots. Greens not as fast as usual but in very good shape. I always enjoy this course and almost always get a very good rate on Golf Now. I will definitely play again.

GREAT VALUE

Played a few days before closing for over seeding. The fairways were fairly hard and the greens were firm. Bunkers could use a little work but overall the course is in very good shape. A mix of water, bunkers, doglegs and some long par fours makes for a good day of golf. The rates are always reasonable here and if you can get a further discount on Golf Now you are getting great value for your money.

HARD TO READ GREENS

Tricky layout with some well placed fairway bunkers to add difficulty but where it really gets interesting is on the greens.All of the greens have multiple slopes and contours making the breaks very hard to read.Prepare yourself for a few three putts.WQell worth the play if you can get a good rate on Golfnow but not at $135.00.

SMALL GREENS

The shorter distances are offset by the difficulties encountered with having smaller greens.Some of the par fours actually are drivable distance wise but very difficult to get on the greens because of small sizing and the crowning.A fun course to play.

NICELY LAID OUT COURSE

Played with a member and two area locals who were good guys so had a good day as a result of the pairings.Golf course fairways were spotty in areas due to the overseeding not taking properly I think.The greens were slower than any others in the valley that I have played on.Other than that it is a nicely laid out course that is fun to play.I got a great deal on golf now which made it a super value for the round.The staff was super friendly and I would definitely play here again.

Great Value

Played from the blue tees at just over 6500 yds which really stretched out some of the par 4's.Also a 570 yd par 5 was interesting.Fairways and bunkers are in good shape and greens were very receptive.Had a 1:15 tee time and we were pushed back to a 1:30 start unfortunately but managed to finish 18 right at darkness.A great deal on Golf Now made for a great value and am looking forward to playing here again.

Good play for the money.

This is an average golf course with the typical forgiving fairways and bunker protected greens.A fun course and with rates at around $20.00 it is a good value.

SHORT COURSE BUT FUN

Course was in good shape with bunkers and water in play on a number of holes.Not long.Only around 6200 yds from the tips but some interesting shots to be had.The ball likes to nestle down in the rough so definitely pays to be on the fairway.A good value for the money.I will play here again.

FUN COURSE WITH MATURE TREES

Well placed bunkers and trees crowding certain tee boxes make for a fun round on a course with numerous doglegs.This course is not long but it is fun to play and is always busy.Also a good course to walk if that is your preference.I would play here again.
