It's just okay. The layout is fun and challenging, but the condition is never great. It's a little pricey for what you get. The practice range is too expensive, and all of the carts are in bad shape. No GPS in the carts, which is weird considering that they told me last year that the reason they don't do 9 hole tee times any longer is because people were paying for nine and then playing 18. Seems like if they put GPS in the carts and caught up to 2026, then they would be able to monitor the carts and charge people who were taken advantage of them. Instead, they punish the rest of us us which is just lazy in my opinion.
If you are not a member do not play here. Absolute horrible service today. We are a foursome playing the course for the first time. We have 1-2 holes in between anyone behind us. We are on hole 7 and someone from the club house comes out and says. We have been having calls of slow play for your group. You need to move up a couple holes to keep pace. (No one is behind us) we abide by the rules of the club house. We move up holes now we are stuck behind 2 groups and moving even slower because we skipped holes like we were instructed. Meanwhile on the turn we notice about 8 carts on the same hole all single person driven. I have been playing 20 years and I’ve never had someone come out and instruct us to move up holes when no one was clearly behind us. Course was in awesome shape and we were playing a good round. But do to horrible management and not being of “status” for this course. I will take my money elsewhere.
Actually a very nice course with very friendly people. The course has tight narrow fairways and many elevation changes which makes the course challenging but also fair. Only thing needed is better directional signs for the next hole. One of the holes turns 90 degrees but you do not realize it until after you get to your next shot. And several people on the course were asking where a certain hole was as they were lost. Easy fix. Again, a very nice and pleasant course.
This is place is wonderful. Well maintained greens. Friendly people. We had a golf outing with family for my husbands promotion weekend and this place made it enjoyable! Would definitely come here again!!
Always enjoy going out and walking the course with the hubby and friends. The owner Ed has always been so sweet. From hole 1 to 18 its a good time.
