Poor Conditions
The course it was in extremely poor condition. The greens were in bad shape, and the fairways were also bad, no grass in many parts. Of the fairway would often be hitting off of dirt.
Very understaffed for a Sunday with only one person working the checkin, payment, starting, and carts.
No plans to play here again.
course needs help
It appears like they have given up on the course maintenance. The practice facilities were worse. It looks like the course has a lot of potential.
Sand traps need attention
Fairways had some hard pan areas due to time of year but the sand traps were hard as a rock. Still had an enjoyable round and will continue to play here
Course Needs New Ownership
This course has been in bad shape for a number of years, the staff is very helpful explaining the problems to the golfers who have not played the course. i would strongly urge you to talk to the pro shop before you make a tee time. The course is in need of major maintenance.
Excellent course
Great course, excellent greens that play fast! I live close by so it's easy to get to with great green fees with frequent promotional rates
OK course, if you can get a good deal !
Not a bad little course if you can find a deal on Golf Now. The greens were very quick, and the hole locations very tough this day. Overall its a descent course with a fairly interesting layout and OK playing conditions.
Meh !
Momma told me if ya can't say anything nice... BUT,
To be honest I had bad round but the course really helped by being in rough shape, Hard / Bare fairways inconsistent greens, fast or super fast, Traps 1 inch of sand then hard pan. Best part of the round was the Buffet ! Sorry wont be back for a while.
very nice
Good course, challenging but with a strait shot. Pretty manageable.. plat those hills. They can really be a help.. greens are tough.
great value for money
This is a very nice course especially with the green fee @ $19 inclusive of cart. The course was challenging enough with lots of trees (which make the course feel relaxing) and some narrow fairways. Lengths vary with very short and very long par 4's. Greens are slightly fast. Overall course condition is fine, I can't understand why some people in other reviews are complaining. I can say that this course can be enjoyed by amateur golfers of all levels.
Good value for the money
Not in the greatest of shape but looks like they are trying to bring it along. Good value for the money.Pace of play in the afternoon was good. Teed off at 12:20 and finished 18 by 4:30 as a foursome.Actually found the bunkers to be some of the best i have played around here,actually had some sand in them and could play a real bunker shot. I have found a lot of bunkers in the area to have 2 inches of sand over clay base and you have to decide to risk a scull shot out or chip out which is never fun.
Terrific bargain @ $15.00
Could have used a Marshall for slow group (2) two groups ahead!
Acceptable overall
I have always liked this course even though the fairways tend to run left and right from the middle. The fairways are currently a bit on the thin side, but the greens are in good condition. The Pro shop personnel are friendly and make a effort to be flexible. This course, as most of the public courses now, are being as conservative as possible with water, making non-landing areas on the brown side..
This course has challenging lies
Played here yesterday and enjoyed the course. Coming from the Pococnos it was nice to play a course where you had to think about grades and lies and ball placement. Too many flat courses here in SoCal. The staff were friendly and the value was great. Yes the fairways were burnt from summer heat but it certainly didn't ruin the experience and the greens were in nice shape.
Tight lies
Interesting course. Very hard & tight fairway lies. It's worth playing.
Very Playable and Fun!!!
For a great experience and a good pace I would recommend this course to anyone!!!
Don't waste your time or money
Played here with my father-in-law on Saturday. I was pretty embarrassed on how poor the conditions were. I can count on one hand how many times I had a good grass lie after a tee shot. Around the green was just as poor. The greens were just OK. If you are not used to playing or putting on a course that slopes to one side (I 15) all day long or used to having a down the middle tee shot end up being in the rough because of slope and no grass to stop it, I would not waste your time or money at this course. Just being Honest.
nice place to play
The coarse was in reasonable shape. There is some slope
to the fairways but that is not too bad. The fairways are green
and play well. It is hard to lose a ball there, I like that. The
greens were in good condition and fairly soft. over all this
was a good place to be.
Neat Layout But Terrible Conditions
The staff was cordial but I wouldn't call them friendly. The ranger approached us on the 2nd fairway and asked us to speed up because the group behind us complained that they waited too long...on the first hole? When he approached us we were waiting for the group ahead to clear the green so we could hit our approach shots. You'd think he would've noticed. The fairways were in terrible shape (brown areas all over the place) and the greens were fair at best. I won't play there again.
Used to be nice
They just left the course dry and unmaintained. Used to be nice.
