Decent, but a few frustrating details

No fringe on any of the greens plus extremely thick rough mix for really difficult play around the green. Plus: sign at the ninth Teebox with menu and phone number to place an order at the clubhouse for food at the turn.

I can’t believe GolfNow and Deerpath allowed this course to take reservations. I lost balls in the green side bunkers because there was so much water I couldn’t see the ball. This course was not in any sort of playable conditions. We couldn’t even get to some tee boxes because there was so much flooding. Perfect tee shots landed in puddles

Course was in great condition. Be aware the course is redoing holes 17/18 which will play as par 3s

Decent

Good local place. However don't pay full price for one reason: major renovation on hole 17 and 18 knocking those two yardage down to nearly half. A problem? Not a major one, but why pay full price to not use the full course? Nowhere is this mentioned, and may be the reason the course was so empty.

Okay if you book for under $40

We played this course, and the greens were awful, not up to par for the north shore, still airated when other courses in the area weren’t anymore. Also they had construction on holes 17 & 18. If you can book it for $40 on a hot deal with a cart, it isn’t that bad. But otherwise there a better courses for your money

Cold weather
Used cart

Setup of corse

To many parallel fairways and driving range balls interfered with at least 4 holes. Also before making tee time they should advise that the course in under construction.

Really nice course

I booked my tee time at 9:30a, but arrived earlier. Lucky for me It wasn’t busy and the staff member was nice enough to allow me to start without delay.

The course was in beautiful shape, only confusing part was some temporary construction on 17 and 18 that wasn’t disclosed at the start.

Otherwise really nice course, was nice to play at a quick pace.

Perfect weather
Walked

Holes 17 and 18 are Under Construction-not playable

No mention of this anywhere. No chance I pay $50 to golf in march, midweek on a course missing nearly 10% of it's holes....and the final 2 at that. I would like a refund but golfnow makes it really hard to contact them so I will air it out in the review portion of their website that is easily navigated to. Thanks
