Great Overall Course

First and foremost, the staff was phenomenal. The course is exactly what you need. Tee boxes could be better but for the most part a great overall course for any level of players.

Falling Leaves

Difficult to find your ball unless it is in the fairway. The leaves in the rough are getting pretty thick.

Very Fast Greens

Greens were almost too fast. If you were above the hole there was no stopping a putt from rolling off the front, kind of ridiculous for a public course and it definitely slows down play. Tee boxes were horrible but the fairways and greens were in great shape.

Cool course layout, poor maintenance

The layout is great and a tough course for the price. Not that well maintained and had some hole placements on the greens that were ridiculous (placed on major sloping points). Overall I would play again.

Needs work

I hadn’t played the course in a few years. New management is making some changes which I don’t especially like. The 5th hole has a new tee box for middle tee shots which makes it about 40 yards closer. Also the 10th tee box has been moved closer making it a 205 yard par 4. I liked it better from the 253 yard tee box . The course was in decent shape, but the scorecard yardages were the same for the white(middle) and red(front) tee boxes. Quite an error if you don’t own a rangefinder! Also on the 7th hole there is some kind of huge rusted metal contraption that can come into play off the left side fairway if you hit an errant second or third shot. I must say it is a challenging course and tight fairways. The putting will test your skills. Keep it below the flagsticks!!

Tough greens and lots of trouble off the green side.

Went on a Sunday afternoon and it was booked up! Slow play with 9 holes taking 3.5 hours. Back nine was better because a lot of players only went 9. Enjoyed it.

Amazing Cart Personnel, and Clubhouse Attendant

Place is tight, hard to not find an occasional tree. Navigating the piles of tree limbs is also a pain.

However, I was Overwhelmed with great beverage service!! Very friendly and attentive staff!!

Did I mention the beverages? This place is fine if you need to find a tee time when its cold or there is nothing else available.

Mixed feelings

Great course but management is a joke. It’s clear the workers have received zero training. They’re sending people off the back in front of people making the turn and slowing play way down. Won’t look you in the eye, slow, lack of friendliness. Whoever the manager of the course is has clearly done zero training of staff and it wrecks an otherwise great experience.
