Poor communication

Starter failed to notify golfers that 2 holes had remote temporary holes with 12in cups. Also, cart guy in afternoon was miserable.

Nice local course

Have played many courses around the country. This is a nice local public course with the best staff I have seen. The course was in playable shape with good fairways. Greens are in the spring grow with minor problems. I will play this course much more in the future.

Better than average…

$75 a round through GolfNow was too pricey for the quality of the course. Better than average, but just a tad. Hard fairways and roughs were like golfing off blacktop. Wish they watered more. 2 temporary greens because of vandalism was sad. Price should take that into consideration. Doubt I’d go again.

Ok for the price

The course overall is not too bad. Started about 20 minutes behind schedule. Fairways are wide and forgiving. Greens were inconsistent and in poor shape with 2 greens closed completely. Pace of play was slow.

Starter was very obnoxious and had no idea how to govern the tee offs. I witnessed at least 32 people upset. He told a twosome that if the other twosome ( that the course teamed them up with ) doesn’t show then they would have to go home. He started us off FIVE groups behind because they were there ahead of us. He acknowledged that we were there 15 minutes before our designated tee time but said it didn’t matter cuz they were there first.

T times

Too many t times jammed together and ignorant golfers driving up to t box and talking while we were teeing off. After 3 holes I finally said something and they stayed away till we were out of box. Too many golfers with no etiquette but courses don’t seem to care as long as they get their money.

Two temporary greens

Golf course is in decent shape except for two greens that were damaged by an atv. No notice of this until we arrive at the 10th green. Temporary green 40 yards short and the same on 17. No discount, no warning.
