For the price compared to courses around this place, this course isn't that bad. I've played many courses further south and I can say this place is better than a lot of them. The other reviews make it seem like this place is dreadful and horrible. But it really isn't. If your entry level, this place is really good. If your amateur, the greens are narrow and hard to hit.
Son and I visited over the weekend and played a quick 9 holes. Arrived early to maybe get started early to beat the heat and the staff was super nice and got us on without a problem. Course was in good shape and we enjoyed the course layout. Not easy but for the average player it is a perfect fit.
Course was okay, in need of a little repair. We were placed behind a fivesome .. so it went a Little slow, but overall, it was nice
Local course that I’ve always gone to for a cheap round, but the more you play the more you notice how run down and unkept the course can be at times. Don’t get me wrong, they have some of the friendliest staff of any course I have ever been to, but the course itself is rough. Good luck putting haha. Each green has 3-4 sandbox sized traps of sand throughout it.
This course was great and cheap! I saw reviews complaining about the greens, but the greens were totally fine imo. There were a few spots where they had resodded, and the fairways probably need a little TLC, but you can’t beat the price. If I had a complaint, it would probably be that the course plays short from the yellows and especially the reds. Basically a par 3 course from there. Lots of water near the blues and whites though, so not a great middle option. Had a lot of fun playing it.
