Nice Course

The course is very neat and not too challenging. It was wet when I played but the greens were a little slow. My biggest issue was that they let a group of 6 out in front of us and the group wouldn’t let us play through. Had to skip a hole and come back.

Overpriced

The tee boxes were in terrible condition, the geese problem is ridiculous for the price to play. Requested a refund when it started pouring down rain and the grumpy old man working the counter said no. Ive played this course several times - definitely disappointed. Don’t make the drive or waste your money.

Tall grads

Me and 3 others from out of town decided to play this course and the grass on the front 9 seemed like it hasn’t been cut in over a week. Everything else was great. Just that one issue.

Links!

Really enjoyed playing this course, especially the back nine. Links style definitely punishes you if you miss hit or overestimate your abilities. Pace of play was excellent and probably due to a cloudy rainy day. Would play again.

Not bad for the first day of spring .

Course was in decent shape considering last year they shut it down for ONE month without any grounds crew. Which is golf course suicide . They spent most of last summer getting the course back in shape . They just plugged the greens a couple of weeks ago so they are healing nicely . Only knocked I would have is the greens are really slow . They could use a cut . But all and all not bad and hopefully they keep the course in great shape because it’s a fun and great layout!!!

Course condition

They had just opened course three days earlier, so the greens had just been aerated. Would have been nice to know while booking tee times.

Another Tim Liddy Gem

Another great Liddy track. Course has a gentle rolling site, wild greens, and unique bunkering. Conditions were great and course has a great location near Ohio River.

Fun & well kept course

Such a fun and fair course to play. Beautiful rolling terrain with the hills of SE Indiana on one side and the Ohio River & the hills of Kentucky on the other. Such a peaceful setting. I love this course.

Wonderful course

Course was in great shape. Beautiful open links course with plenty of challenges. Pace of play rating due to the group in front of us only. Will definitely be back and would strongly recommend.
