The course was recently sold to new ownership, so they are trying to turn things around. They are completely redoing the greens on 9 and 18, which should look good when it is complete. Right now, however, the greens are in pretty bad shape for most of the course. Getting a true putt is a pretty rare event. But, I think the owners understand that so you can get a pretty affordable round in. We paid $30 on a weekend with a coupon. The price is the only reason I didn't give this 1 flag.

Pretty and fun to play, I've played it once or twice a year for 15 years and I'll go back again. Inexpensive and you can get on and play quickly in off-hours. I played alone in 3 hours on a Saturday afternoon. Tee boxes were in poor shape but the greens and fairways were good. The golfers with complaints about the greens being crowned should hit their approach shots better!

The only course I've ever played that you get penalized for landing on the greens. The greens make this course frustrating. But the price is fairly cheap. You only need your driver on 2 holes: Num 1 and Num16. The greens are shaped like upside-down cereal bowls, so any approach shot will likely roll off of the green. The smartest way to play most of the holes is to "bump and run" your ball short of the green and hope it doesn't roll off.

I absolutely love this course. You have to play "smart" golf on many of the holes, the terrain is challenging, the scenery is beautiful. In this area, you can't find a better course for the money.

Played 3/31. In fine shape, especially greens and fairways. Bare spots on tees, but not bad, rough fairly short. Pace was great, especially for 8 a.m. on a Saturday morning. Crowned greens got me again, especially on chips and a few iron shots that I thought were going to be pretty nice. But the ball rolled off the edge of the green.

Decent course I play with my Dad when visiting him. Straight forward layout and design. No hidden issues, course shape has been fuzzy in the past but seems to be a better this year. A fair value and a nice place to work on your game.


Double Bogey

This course is a triple bogey! I have played some bad courses in my day and this one may rank number as the worst! No grass on the fairways weak layout, and dry very very dry. Do yourself a favor and stay far away! The golf course is need of major work!

Greens are in great shape and roll true. Great test of game for all golfing abilities and skills.
