Average Course, Plays Well but Issues Played as a 2-some June 2017 and found it average with challenging holes but course and equipment lacking attention. Booked online and checked in at the Pro Shop. Went smoothly but staff was not friendly...not rude but not welcoming either. Assigned cart 47 which limped through the first 9 holes before we returned it as the clutch was nearly gone and it backfired several times. We suggested they take it out of rotation and were issued a new cart. The course is 18-holes and transition to the next hole is easy. It offers Gold, Blue, Black, Blue/Black blended, and red. The blended played at 6,000 yds with a few turns, nice shade trees that, if you get caught under, are easy to shoot out. Tee boxes have seen some heavy marring and should be rotated. The fairways are well cut but numerous types of grass and a few weeds have migrated onto them giving both an uneven play and appearance. Similarly, the greens were mostly well cut with some in excellent shape and others showing wear and tear. Pin placements were mostly middle and a few fronts, only one had a back placement. The 10th hole is not well marked so if this is your first time playing, you may want to lay up at the top of the hill as two lakes will surprise you on the other side (the score card did not have pics of each hole). Transitioning from Hole 9 to 10 was confusing with no signage resulting in having to ask another player. A couple of other holes were equally confusing as to locating the hole from the tee box. Our Garmin GPS seemed off on many of the holes (30 - 40 yds) which we have never encountered before and likely because the course hasnt sent an update to their changes from 2015. The course does allow private carts which I would recommend given the condition of the in-house ones. Early morning fees are much too high for a course this average and strongly recommend playing in the afternoon when rates are in the $20s pp (course is not worth more in its current condition IMO). Recommendations: If you are local and this course is close to you then go and play if you can get a good rate. For those traveling like us or wanting to drive from the city to play out in the country, skip this course as there are many other local course that are in better shape and offer more.

Short boring course. Very hard, fast greens. Dont aim for the pin ever. Aim for short of the green and you may hold it. Back and forth fairways, nearly impossible to lose balls. Mostly a hackers course.
