Great value and pace of play were great
Greens in very good shape, fairways in decent shape and a lot of gopher holes in the fairways.played in 3 hours 25 min
Course in rough shape
This used to be a very good county course but is not very good at this time. The fairways were overgrown except in the areas which are hard pan. Hit numerous drives right down the middle and had a hard time finding the ball because the fairways haven't been mowed in awhile. The ones I could see where on basically bare dirt. Fairways deserve a grade of D. Greens which used to be very well maintained are now just ok. Bare spots and repaired areas are abundant luckily someone did a good job putting the flags away from the damaged areas. The carts are very old and beat up, mostly from other courses who sold them off. The snack bar had no cooked food for sale because of stove or grill being out if service. The only upside was pace of play was good because the course was amazingly empty for Easter vacation week. The other course this company runs is packed full probably because it is in much better shape. It is a shame that this once very well maintained facility has become so run down, I wouldn't be surprised at all if goes out of business soon, too bad.
Great pace of play
Greens were in good shape, firm and fast fairways a little rough, but greening up nicely
BV great !
Greens in good shape Fairways a little rough, but that’s par for the time of year pay supply was really good completed around and under four hours so definitely worth the drive compared to five hour rounds at Kern River and 4 1/2 hour rounds at North Kern
Pace of play
My only complaint was pace of play. There were 2 foursomes ahead of me and my partner and they refused to let us play through. By the end of the day it got real old. I almost wish people would have to sign off on knowing basic golf edict before playing. I understand the course can’t afford a Marshall right now but it’s pretty infuriating when players don’t know the basics. Staff are friendly and the course is just fine for being a public course.
Bumpy Ride
Course is a lot of fun in general. If you don’t stay on the fairway though it’s a very uneven ground and bumpy. Greens had some rough patches and it’s sometimes hard to find your ball because of all the debris on the ground, even on the fairway. Even that said I still recommend playing it, fun layout and challenging blind shots. Good for beginner and experienced golfer.
only downside is the drive
good value for the prices, even better with a deal. only downside is the drive out there
Greens in good shape
The course was in good shape considering it’s still winter. The greens were in really good shape. Only a few greens had some issues, but overall very pleased with the course.
As Expected
Exactly what I expected after reading the reviews. Great greens, well kept, relatively cheap, and good pace. The only downside was the girls in the kitchen were rude.
Fun day with daughter
This course is a hidden gem. Great food good value and relaxed atmosphere. Oasis in the desert 🩷
Great round
Pay supply was excellent. Greens were in good shape. A few bad areas on a few of the greens.
Don't play here
Course was in terrible shape bare spots and straight up dirt in the middle of the fair ways. Some of the greens had massive lumps and crevices on the greens. Overall just wouldn't recommend this place.
