Wuddup

Solid course. There was quite a few low spots that had water and damage from carts. Greens were in great shape but kinda inconsistent with how fast they rolled. Could’ve been due to the sprinklers. In a month or so this course should be in good shape.

Winter

This course was in poor condition. I understand they weather has a lot to do with that , its been cold and rainy., But the greens where horrible too. I played here once in the summer and enjoyed it this was my second time here and thought it was in horrible shape. The staff was very friendly and we grabbed a drink and a bite to eat. I like the different holes . If I knew the course was in better condition I would play there again if not i'd have to pass.

It's a challenging course some of the fairways were a little rough and the pace of play was fast because it was cool and windy out so there were not many people on the course. For the price you cant beat it just bring pl plenty of balls if you not hitting it straight.

Huge Downturn

For them to try to charge $40 any time to play this course should be a crime! Half the greens are dead , the fairways are terrible and none of the sand traps even have sand in them. Most of the staff is unfriendly and act like this is some great course when in reality it’s one of the biggest dog tracks in the area. Used to have a great layout in perfect condition 10 years ago. Sad

Rating is very accurate, worse course I play and I play often. We play here because they give us old guys a cheap rate as long as u buy a membership. Been here for years and haven't seen any improvements. U have to walk around to find any grass to place your ball on. They cut grass but nothing else. Even a 40 pound bag of turf builder would be an improvement. Sand traps? U mean mud traps. Many of the staff are nice though.

Given it was November the course was in pretty good shape. The range was unavailable which was an extreme disappointment. Beautiful weather and had it not been for a couple of times waiting it would've been perfect. It still beats working. The course was as challenging as always.

The course needs major work

I am not sure what has happened to this course over the last few years. This use to be my favorite course in the area. Everything about this course use to be in great shape and offered a great challenge to a competitive golfer. The course now has so many dead spots in the fairways and greens. The greens use to be some of the best in the area now over half of them have large holes and dead spots which make it near impossible to putt accurately and not have your ball hopping . The irrigation system needs to be replaced on the back nine because it’s soaked with even a small amount of rain. I hope the group managing this course can get it back to the good days of a premium place to play.

Waste of money

Don’t waste your money, greens are half dirt on probably 12-14 holes. Fairways are overgrown and feel like concrete with a little bit of grass on top.

Some of the Greens and Fairways have a fungus and the santraps were ovrgrown with weeds. This course is a great layout with some tough holes,but the course condition has dropped off.
