42 degrees don’t care

It was a bit chilly, wind was a bit up, but sun was shining and course in surprisingly good condition for February 2. Enjoyed the walk and the round. Nothing like playing with ice on the water

I love this course except !

The bunkers have alot to be desired. I wish they were all playable but they're not. Hopefully next season all the bunkers will be the same, GOOD TO PLAY OUT OF !

Top Tier

Everything thing about this course is always top tier. It’s long but fairways are open and the greens are huge. It has some water holes and #7 is one of the more challenging holes of the course that I play. They have great prices on the beer as well. Anytime I can find a good deal to play here I’m always pouncing on it lol. They stay open year round as well. Nice area to practice putting, chipping and a nice range too. It’s definitely far out and not close to either expressway.

- Tee, fairways, and greens are in good conditions (greens are fair, but maybe slow).
- Bunkers are bad... such that we play them as GUR.
- Layout is fun and fair for all skill levels.
- #16, #17, and #18 are a wonderful closing stretch of holes.
- Staff is helpful.

Nice course

Normally when we play this course the pace of play is usually pretty good. On this day though we were playing behind an older twosome. Their pace of play was ridiculous. We would have to wait 3-5 minutes to tee off on every hole. We thought about jumping ahead of them but there was a foursome in front of them. I'm by far not the fastest golfer out there but I know when things get really choked up you do your best to speed things up so everything doesn't get so backed up!!
