Great value

Course was green and in great shape. Four jamokes in front of us took their time on the tee box to duff it 120 yards. But for $48 on a Sunday morning, everyone in the group agreed we will return. The friendly bartender also made the 19th hole enjoyable.

Great course, slowest pace of play ever

Every tee box was backed up significantly. The round took over 5 hours to finish, which made the experience much worse. The course was great, but they booked too many tee times. By the time we ended, there were about 8 or 9 carts backed up on hole 10 which was ridiculous. Not sure if its a one time thing or this is the norm there, I still had a good time there though.

Would’ve been 5 stars if it weren’t for pace of play!

Everything about the course was great. It was in great shape. I loved driving through the neighborhood, but the one issue was it was backed all the way up.
