Working to get it back in shape

Looks like they're trying to get the fairways built back out wider and the rough to a manageable height. But still a ways to go. Goose grass is taking over several of the fairways and bunkers are gravelly or packed down by rain. The greens rolled ok.

OK deal using hot deal pricing. Not a good deal at regular rate especially compared to similarly priced courses in the area.

Starting to get needed attention

The course has good bones but maintenance seems to have gotten away from them. Perhaps all the rain earlier. The greens were punched a couple weeks ago and are finally getting back to rolling properly though still some dead patches. The fairways are ok but they've been narrowing them. Seems they will be widening them a bit as some paint markings were on the course to indicate that. Roughs are better than they were but still can lose balls even a few feet off the fairway. Goose grass is a problem on the fairways in several areas. Gravel/stones in some of the bunkers.
Decent course but need to attend to maintenance to be on par with other courses for the money.

Good bones. Working on improvements

Very nice people run this course and they have been working on the course. Removed a lot of trees. Fairways fair condition but goes from fairway to waste area without any real rough. Greens the day we played were shaggy and a bit bouncy. Appeared to have been aerated about 2 weeks earlier and filling back in. I know these guys are working hard and I hopee all goes well for them.
The pace of play seemed slow but that seems to be a problem anywhere there are no rangers coming thru once in a while to be sure guys are keeping up.

Coming along nicely

The new ownership has been working since November so I would imagine a lot of the improvements will be more noticeable in the spring. The rye grass is a bit patchy on the fairway. Greens for the most part roll true and even and are nicely groomed. A few have some patches of bare areas with sand and chunks of grass.
One item I wish they'd take care of is installing some ball washers. There's not a single one on the course. Also the bunker rakes are pretty scarce.
Nice course though and I look forward to seeing how it perks up in the spring.

Nice Course Great Carts

Played as a 2-some.
Met by a very nice man in the clubhouse. Bought last year by Warrior golf and a lot of work has been done to upgrade the course. New carts with built-in GPS was a very nice touch and helped a lot. Greens were fast and a bit bare in spots. Man in clubhouse said that they're going to redo the greens for 2013.
I'd heard, from people that had played here in the years back, that this course was not very good and in rough shape. I hope they take another look at it. They owe it to themselves.
