It’s a 36-hole golf course with two separate 18-hole layouts. There are plenty of lakes, so the bugs came out around sunset—but the scenery makes up for it. Lots of birds, peaceful views, and overall a beautiful place to play. I’d definitely come back to try the other 18.
This place was great and the staff was exceptional! They had an luncheon event for veterans after a round of golf and a veteran vendor market where you could find out about Medicare/Meidcaid, home repairs, and many other veteran owned and veteran friendly businesses band organizations. As a Gulf War Veteran- I was honored and grateful- nice event and wonderful people. Thank you.
This course is an absolute steal for the price . The condition is wonderful right now . Go check it out!!!
Played today....the Lakes needs some TLC with the fairways and tee boxes. Very dry and hard pan fairways. The greens are excellent A+. Beautiful clubhouse and facility. Just get a little more water on the fairways. The Palms looked in better shape.
Played the "palms" course on March 10, 2024. Guys in the pro shop were very helpful and the lady working the grill/bar. As for the course the range, chipping, and putting areas are about average. They also hit on mats. They worker at the range was also very friendly and helpful. As for the course, the tee boxes need a lot of working and a lot of them were not cut. the fairways are patchy and could also use some more attention. The bunkers were average, some had the right about of sand and some had more rocks than sand and was hard to hit from. The greens was the best part of the course. They all looked great and rolled fast but true. I could see myself coming back to this course, not a bad course to play but could use some attention.
