To be honest, for a 9 hole pasture course it wasn’t worth the $$. With that being said, with a bit more maintenance and care it would be a fantastic course. Wasn’t a fan of having my drivers license scanned for the cart rental either. Ended up booking 9 holes, for 8 golfers to kill the morning. We asked if we could all go out at the same time due to it not being overly busy at 9:45am, there response was less than impressed with us in saying “we’d be holding them up all day”. Even tho the foursome that just went out before us wasn’t the quickest and we were constantly waiting on them. Don’t pla…

This is a fun course at the most affordable price you can find for a full 9 hole course. It's not as perfect looking as the more expensive ones, but that's completely ok for the good price and the relaxed atmosphere. The fairways and greens are still perfectly playable, and I think it has a nice layout, with a good variety of holes. It can be good for beginners, as it's not extremely busy, but it's still challenging enough for experienced golfers. I definitely recommend it.

Decent little course, alright prices.. I've been to the course about five times, because a good friend of mine lives nearby. Today I drove the hour to my friends house, and while enroute all the interac systems went down. I offered to leave a DL or credit card since the systems are down, but the course adamantly refused. Pretty terrible customer service... There is no overhead cost to letting four people use the course and pay later.. I will certainly not be attending this course in the future

Newbie to golf here but it was a very inexpensive course. Some challenging holes and easy to lose a few balls. Easy to walk as they dont offer golf carts at this time. Takes about 2-2.5 hours to finish 9 holes. They have a special of 15$ on tuesdays which is a great deal! Staff was very friendly. And golf area is surrounded by farmland, creeks and sheep/llamas. Would recommend trying out if you're in the area!

Very laid back, no dress code no tee times just show and go. The price is very reasonable. This place is awesome and so are the people that run it. Great place for beginners or for practice.

Worst priced course I’ve ever been to, it’s a goat track. Could charge $20 or even 30$ less than what they do.
