Course tee boxes are in horrible shape. Greens could use more care, no one cleaning off debris on the greens. Driving range was is great shape but no one was allowed to use the driver, mats only, there was no clear justification.

Golf time

Staff pro in the front was a different person and was super friendly. Pace was fine and the course was good. I like golfing here and will golf this location a few times a year.

This course is a tough course.

Was golfing with a heart transplant recipient that I paid for two golfers with a cart. But I had a head cold so I asked if we could have a second cart so not to put the heart transplant person in risk and was charged an extra fee for the golf cart. Was told that’s the policy. If I could’ve canceled the tickets without losing my money, that’s what I would have done.

It's Golf

Just go and play there if you have never been. It's a decent course. Hole 11 is a little different, but if you play it right, it will be a nice par or better...maybe worse. Just go and play.

Conditions and OverBooked

They need to do a better job taking care of the greens and tee boxes because they look absolutely atrocious right now. They overbook tee times, needs to be spread out 20 minutes apart in order to be realistic about pace of play.
