Great course

Favorite course in the area. Great pace of play. Great length. Fairways and greens are incredible. Only complaint is the lack of a cart girl! Played on a Sunday and no one came around for the entire round. Love this course regardless and will be back.

Good course but questionable pricing

I'm happy with the course, conditions and pace of play. What turned me off was their pricing. I got a hot deals discounted rate on GolfNow. However, it only gave a walking rate. I fully understood I would have to pay a cart fee. I called the course twice (800# and local 847). I was quoted both times $12 per person. It happened that my dad arrived 1st and they charged him $18 each. When I went to speak with the proshop they tried to adjust the cart price based on what I paid for the golf. With the GolfNow fees our price would have been more than their normal rates. The proshop ended up honoring the $12 fee each. It was just frustrating they tried to charge more for the cart because I had a hot deals greens fee.

Nice Layout

Overall, enjoyed the round. Challenging layout that can play quite long but fair. Greens were aerated, but rolled well. Pace of play fine, but, looks like a course for the weekend golfer so pace can get slow. Would recommend trying this course

Great course

Was in town working for a little bit and had the opportunity to golf this course twice. Well maintained, challenging course. My only complaint would be they didn't have any NA beer available. Otherwise everything was great.
