Cow Pastore Course

The conditions were very rough because of all the rain which is not their fault but it also means the course doesn’t drain well at all

Very pricey for a cow Pastore

Smelly, loud, and backed up

Let’s begin with the smell. The front 9 smelled as though I had been transported to Shrek’s swamp after his deceased body has been left to rot for several weeks. It was putrid.

As if the smell wasn't enough, the delightful ambiance of roaring airplane engines from the nearby airport filled the air. Additionally, the balls flying over from the driving range added another element of excitement. I couldn't help but feel like I was in the middle of a warzone, reliving ancestral memories of dodging bullets in the jungles of Nam.

All in all, there is absolutely no reason to ever play here. I suggest the tear up the whole place and build a parking lot or a chemical waste facility. Either would be a better and more productive use of the space.

Swampy Mess, delayed start

Arrived at 7:45 for an 8:30 round. Clubhouse/Bartender (same guy swamped with two jobs on a Holiday) complained I was early. Told him I had hoped to hit a bucket before playing, but the range was closed so no option to do so. (About 20 golfers in parking lot looking to use the range, so I don't think it is usually closed at this time).

Load up and line up at starting tee 20 minutes ahead to tee time, 3 groups waiting, and one on the tee box waiting for hole to clear. Finally tee off 30 minutes late, pace of play was fine, finished right on time with the card, so just late getting people out.

Course is adjacent to a busy municipal airport, so every 5-10 minutes a low flying plane takes off, can mess up your concentration.

Could be a great course, but I've been occasionally (1 time a season or so) playing here for over 10 years and they have done nothing about the swampy conditions. Doesn't seem the be a priority at all. The only thing that they have done to keep up with other courses in the area is raise there green fees.

There are at least 10 better public courses within 30 minutes that are either the same price, or within 10 dollars. All of them are better options.

Thank you for a nice return to NCC!

Hi All! It was nice to be able to return on 6/11 to golf at NCC! It had been at least 2 years! My crew of 4 faithfully played 9 holes every Saturday morning for years until the rules changed and we could no longer play the desired 9 holes on a weekend morning! We have found a new course to play but very much miss the convenience and friendly staff at NCC! Glad for the website ‘error’ that did allow us to play 9 yesterday and it was like old times! Really enjoyed it - the course was in pretty good shape and we had a blast! Thank you again! Paula Flood

Worst Golf Experience Ever

This course was by far the worst course I’ve played in a long time maybe ever. If you are looking for a miserable round look nowhere else. The pace of play was the worst I’ve ever seen. 6+ hour round waiting 5+ mins on every shot. Sprinkler heads in the middle of every green, couldn’t tell the difference between the rough or fairway. Tee boxes look like the Rocky Mountains. No flat tee box in site. For the price it is an absolute scam. Could not have had a worse time.

Firt Time

The course was great because it was dry, however, thought it was a little expensive as I could not figure out how to select the senior button on GolfNow, regardless, I enjoyed it very much.

Don’t waste your time

Worst course i’ve played in a long time - stay away. Huge holes for sprinklers in the middle of the green, swampy fairways, uncut rough, and absolutely horrible pace of play. Don’t believe the high rating on here boosted by the regulars…
