Very disappointing...

This course is bad....period. Right from the tee boxes to the putting greens, everything needs repair. Add to it the swarm of insects and mosquitoes at this course. The course has such an interesting layout but is just not maintained. I would not recommend this course in its current conditions.

Get a helmet....

Good course - fair price - no bunkers.

My only issue with this course is that the fairways are narrow and that the fairways of the adjoining holes are so close to each other that a wayward shot from one hole might hit players playing the adjoining hole. I almost got hit by a wayward shot from the next tee box....the ball whizzed past my face about a feet away and thankfully I was saved.

Will probably wear a helmet next time I play this course.

Horrible....

This is just a horribly maintained course. The roughs severely need a cut; if you go on the rough you will not find your ball. The fairways too are muddy and mushy - so a ball hit on the fairway may disappear below the mud and crap.

A good challenging course which would have been fun to play had it been maintained properly but alas it is not !

We seriously thought of going to the pro-shop at the end of the round to ask for money back. What a waste of time and money.....

I would not recommend this course to anyone.

Great course....

Played this course last week. It is a sweet gem in the wilderness !

Great course.....very nicely kept with friendly staff.....moderate difficult.

The only issue is the approach road which is non-metalled and therefore you have to drive thru dirt roads.

It took 4.5 hours to play 12 holes....

It took 4.5 hours to play 12 holes....and then we decided to walk out. And we were just 2 players.

I have played this course before but this time something was majorly wrong. Not sure if it was the scheduling by the staff or what.

On hole no. 3 had to wait for 35 minutes to tee off.

Marshalls were seen all around but none of these kids helped in increasing the pace of play.

Total waste of time and money on this round.

Nice links style course....

I have been played at this course several times in the last few years. It is a nice links style course and is well kept.

Note of caution - some of the holes play real long !

My only concern is the backups that happen on hole 2 and 3 - hole 2 is a short par 4 (driveable) and hole 3 is a par 3 - I have always seen a lot of clogging happening at these holes which slows down the progress. My suggestion to the management is to swap the front 9 with the back 9 and vice versa - that will definitely speed up play and remove this clogging.

This time I also saw a lot of geese on the course - something needs to be done to remove them - they are a nuisance and make the course dirty.

Needs some serious maintenance...

Course needs some serious maintenance. Not kept well at all. Layout is good. If maintained properly it will be a good course to play.

Would not recommend or play there again in current conditions.
