Hidden Gem

Great course tucked away in a beautiful neighborhood in Crete. Great value. Fairways and greens in excellent condition. Newer carts. Cold drinks available by beverage cart. Free bucket of warm up balls! First time ever having that offered. Will visit again.

The Price you can’t beat

I play this course often the value is great. Only problem is a few times we were stuck playing behind golf outings when purchasing midday hot deals. But that’s what you sorta expect when playing 18 with cart for 12.99. Overall course is nice and open, greens are good and staff is great.
