Not worth the money......unless

First off starter seemed extremely unorganized, trying to squeeze golfers in. I ended up being put with 3 other guys. None of us had met each other before which is fine. I’m an ok golfer 4 handicap. One of the guys with us should not have been on this golf course. Lost balls every hole, ended up about 80 over. I understand that everyone has different abilities but when you pay $75 for a round I don’t expect to be standing around waiting and waiting. The round was nearly 5 hours long. If you are thinking of playing this course by yourself think again. You will be put with complete random golfers of who knows what ability. Also when we got to the 12th hole including us there were 16 guys on the hole.

4 on green. 4 on tee. We were waiting and then another 4 some came up and waited behind us.

No marshal to move pace of play along. For a course that has strict rules and policies they really don’t enforce them. I saw a guy tee off on the first when I finished in jeans and a t-shirt. Again I don’t mean to sound like a snob. It’s a touristy course but then lower your prices. I was so excited to play this course and by hole 12 I just wanted the round to be over. I played really well for 11 holes. 1 over thru 11. We were already slow due to a very poor golfer in our group and then we hit slower golfers.

Conditions were cart path only which didn’t help as the one guy kept slicing his ball and always seemed to be the furthest possible distance he could be from his ball. It was very wet (not the courses fault) heavy rain 3 days prior. So he’d have a long walk to his ball. Hit that right. Walk back to cart to get club and then have to walk even further the next time.

Very very frustrating round. I really wanted it to be a great day. I had a 7 and a half hour drive home after this extremely long round.

Would be fun to play with a group of friends or similar standard golfers. Maybe a weekday or in the off season would be better.

I would play it again but I’d try and book the first tee time.

Nice little course.

I always enjoy playing here. The owner is such a nice guy and has done wonders with the course since he took over. It’s not a terribly difficult course. Fairways are ok greens are usually really nice. Tee boxes could be better. The 2 par 5’s on the front 9 are very short. I can reach number 6 in 2 using a 4 iron and an 8 iron but I do hit longer than most. Not a drivers course you just need to hit steady irons and you will score well. Pace of play has always been pretty good.

Infuriating pace of play.

I played the back 9 first and loved it. Really enjoyed it. Then after the first nine it hit the slowest 3 ball I've ever been behind. I watched them tee off on every hole. They were not very good which is fine but have some decency or some golf etiquette and allow quicker better golfers to play through. Rangers should enforce this. Course was in good shape and looked nice. Would I play here again???? I don't know.... I was so angry at the pace of play on 17 I picked up my ball and drove back to club house. 8 holes took 2hrs:40mins. Ridiculous.

Response from on 09/07/2017:
Thank you for your review and kind words about the golf course, Marc. We apologize if the pace of play on the back nine took away from your overall enjoyment of the round. We hope you'll give us another chance in the future.

Slow pace

The course was in very good condition. This is not a tough course but the greens are very challenging. Enjoyed it very much. The only thing we did not enjoy was the pace of play. Wevwereva 2 ball and we sat behind 2 4 balls from the 5th hole. There were rangers but they didn't seem to be doing anything. We watched the group ahead of us tee off pretty much every hole from 7 onwards. was very frustrating. On one hand I blame the guys infront of us for not having good etiquette but also that's what course rangers are for. They should have said to the four ball let these guys play through. Nice course ruined by extremely slow play.

Short

This course is not the toughest course. It doesn't have any long par 4's has very short par 5's and the longest par 3 is about 175 yards.
You do not need a driver on this course. Course managemt is definitely key here. I use irons off every par 5.
Course is pretty well kept, staff are friendly for the most part. The only thing that really annoys me there is that a couple of the groundsman don't respect players. I've been teeing off with a guy standing behind me blowing leaves whilst I'm trying to tee off. Pace of play can be very slow at times but It all depends on who's playing. It's not the toughest course and therefore attracts all types of golfers. ( we all have to start somewhere, although I believe management or starter should brief golfers before going out, saying if a group catches you and you are slowing play then allow them to play through.) I can play this course in 1hr45, I've had rounds take me 4 hours as a 4 ball infront of me would not let me ( a single ) play through. It's just rude.
This sounds like a negative review but it's not. On occasions where I've got there early I've had a great round and really enjoyed it. Greens are nice, fairways are pretty well kept, some of the tee boxes need a little work but it's great value for money. I will continue going there.

Good course.

I really liked this place, it's challenging but not too challenging. Par 5's are par 5's which I love. Some good distance par 3's and some nice laid out par 4's.

I've enjoyed every round I've had here. Greens are nice and receptive. Fairways are great and tee boxes are well kept. Pace of play has always been great. It has some long holes and you have an opportunity to use most of the clubs in you bag. Back 9 is certainly tougher and less forgiving.

Really nice course. Will return.
