Great layout and condition

Greens were soft and fast but not always smooth because many did not repair their ball marks.
Ordered a well vodka drink and it was $10 - a little ridiculous.
Staff was very friendly and helpful.

fun course

interesting layout with many different types of holes and shots required. fairways and greens were perfect. staff was very friendly, pace was a little slow and if you haven't played before some holes are hard to figure out. definitely play there again because it was in great shape

VERY Neglected

There was not one part of the course that was in good shape. Tees and fairways really bad and greens that used to be good, had weeds no grass and bumpy. It’s a shame. Found out the Super quit, then the Assistant Super quit. Don’t play until conditions improve.

Terrible shape

Unlike previous years, this course has been extremely neglected. Tees and greens were in very poor condition. All kinds of grass, weeds, and bumps on the greens. I first thought they stopped putting any money into the course but was told the greens superintendent quit and later the assistant super quit as well. It’ll take a lot of work and money to get this course back in shape.

Fun course

Besides that it was really windy, the course was fun because there was roll on the fairways, greens held well and rolled fast and true. Pace was very slow at first but picked up through the back nine. The starter was awesome, with helpful hints and very friendly. Definitely will play there again.

Fun course

The course was in excellent condition. Greens rolled true and fast. Layout was fun/interesting requiring many different shots but the pace was ridiculously SLOW. Waited on almost every shot and felt pushed with the 2 groups seemingly behind us waiting as well. The 2 players we were paired with left after 9. Love the course and will definitely play again but maybe at a different time to avoid the slow play.

Nice course BUT

Everything was great with the golf, layout is interesting, greens putted real nice, pace was good - would definitely play again.
BUT, we went up to the bar afterward because the sign outside said “Happy Hour 3-6 - Come on in”. Doesn’t really matter except that the women in charge first said “that’s not my sign, No happy hour.” But then she said she’d take $3.00 off our bill - my wife’ had a Titos and coke, I had a draft beer. She charged us $19.14 ! ! Outrageous even for prices in a high end bar in NYC. It really ruined a nice day on the golf course.

Nice greens

Layout is interesting requiring many different shots. Some tees need work, fairways are good but most importantly the greens were awesome, ball rolled true and fast. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Also with range balls included on a great practice facility, it is a complete golf experience.

Great greens slow pace

Fairways and tees were ok but greens were rolling fast. A major downside is the pace of play was extremely slow.

Nice course

Love the course even though conditions were not perfect. Greens still rolled fast but have poana. Great variety of holes and sneaky difficult. Note to golf now golfers - you have to tee off at your specific tee time even if no one is on the tee.

The layout is interesting with many different shots required. Several holes have water to carry and many have water running parallel to the fairways. Greens roll nice and are fairly fast

I have played this course many times , love the layout, conditions are usually very good, but today was ridiculous. It took 3 hours to play the front nine. Even though the course was crowded play should never be that slow. I called the pro shop while waiting on the 6th tee with 2 other groups - 2 hours had already passed. The ranger did come by on #7 and said that there were no gaps, just crowded. Strongly suggest they change their tee times to have. at least 10 minute gaps instead of 8. Not going to have many golfers returning to play again. Not fun to wait that much for any round.

Excellent conditions

It was fun to hit off great tees and fairways. The greens were fast and rolled true. Layout was fun with many variety of holes but not too challenging such as water to hit over or hidden hazards. We got confused as to where some holes were looking from the tees. Very friendly staff everywhere.

best course in the area

This course is in excellent shape, nice fairways, fast greens and well manicured all around. Great layout with all holes different requiring many different shots. Not easy for any beginner or high handicapper but tons of fun for better golfers. Bag guys and other staff are very friendly and helpful.
