Not a nice place

This was the second worst course I’ve ever played. It was in terrible condition, and they still want a prime money to play there.

Perfect Day to Play

The weather was perfect, low humidity, sunny, and 80 degrees. We are in a long dry season, so you always got an extra 5-10 yards of roll. The down side there were more bare spots than normal. It’s a long course, with a nice layout. Nice wildlife on the course. $32 green fee cannot beat it.

Seeing Improvements

Played here several times recently while recovering from a back injury. Good to see the course is slowly improving. Long way to get back more than a decade ago when it was one of my favorites.

Town course

Nice course. There’s some water and it’s challenging. Staff is very friendly. The marshal even tried to talk in French for us.

Fun/challenging

Course is fun and challenging for a bogey golfer as myself. My only complaint is the condition of the greens made it virtually impossible to putt

Not the ideal conditions but worth the money for a cheap round

A buddy and I played this course and had a good time overall. The greens are very spotty, where you have dead grass on the green. However you can see the potential this course has on some holes as the greens are perfect. For the price you can not beat it especially this time of year
