Day after a major rain and poor winter conditions. Beautiful course. Can’t wait to play in spring once grass is out.

Great experience

From the time I got out of my car until leaving everything was top notch. The winter golf at this course was amazing… the course was beautiful and the greens… my goodness the greens were amazing. I was paired with some locals and I had an awesome time with them and their course knowledge. The scenery was great as well. Will be back!

Greens are in good shape

Greens are in good shape and pretty fast. Overall condition is good for this time of year and the weather we have had recently. Really challenging and I felt it's been too long since I have played here. really recommend if you haven't been in a while like, me.

Great Course

This is a premium course to play, and I had been looking forward to play at. The greens and fairways were in great condition. The pro shop and entire staff is amazing and provided great customer service.

A top course in the area

This is a top course in the Birmingham area. Great layout and the greens are usually near perfect. An occasional ranger presence would benefit, especially when pace of play can slow down on back 9. Other than that, this course is one of my favorites.
