Not worth $70, 50 tops.

First time i played here. Shot an 87. I know its early in the season but they are not going to fix the spots that are missing grass by the greens. No sand in any sand traps at all. The back holes around #16 are trash. I did like the lay out and the trees were nice and challenging and if you hit a not so bad shot you could find you’re ball. I know golf prices are going up so $70 is not even that high but the course conditions are terrible/bad.

Muddy mess

When the course is in this condition they should close the back nine and continue as a nine-hole course. It was a muddy mess! The drainage system doesn't exist.
The staff was nice and pleasant.

Counter was very rude and not helpful at all. After a question about Carts he said well don't play then go somewhere else. So I probably will this year. Course needs alot of love also falling apart for the price you pay

Course condition particularly the back nine was poor.

This course needs a significant amount of back breaking work.

Worst conditions I ever saw

The entire course is in disrepair. Turf stripped and missing on multiple fairways. Grass not cut. Absolutely disgusted they are charging full rate for a course so unkept.
