Horrendous, course is not worth $1. Large willow fallen tree sitting for a month on course at 5th hole. Talk about liability with golfers constantly under there daily looking for lost balls. Tree is holding on by thread & guess it will take someone getting hurt or worse crushed under it for them to start cutting & clearing it out. But, hey no biggy...let's just advertise another free ladies night, drink special, or gross spaghetti night. SMH 😂

Course is in decent shape it definitely needs some work a lot of sparse areas in the fairways in around the greens. Greens are pretty soft and wet right now so the ball will hold but they putt fairly decent. With some general maintenance on playing conditions this course would be very nice.

I've been friends with the superintendent and his father for many many years. I can honestly say they're not to blame for the way this course is looked for so long. The multiple owners of this course over the years have refused to put any money into it. If you can't afford the proper maintenance / products in order to make the course look halfway decent, don't invest in a golf course.

One star for the great price of $28 with a cart. Got what I paid for as far as course condition. Photo attached is my ball in the fairway.

The course, unfortunately is a shadow of it's former self. The course is in tough shape, fairways are partially sand, weeds, and some form of grass. Some of the greens are eating themselves alive but are playable. If you're looking for a cheaper round just to get out there, by all means. But other than that, don't expect anything spectacular.

Person that checked us in had a very negative personality even tried joking with him and just made him worse, the course was in such horrible shape they should have paid us to golf there. It's so sad, used to be one of my favorite places to play.

Played the course today for the first time. Tee boxes were in rough shape. Cart paths were pretty torn up. Folks driving right up to the tee boxes and greens which was disappointing. The greens were in good shape but needed mowing so they played very slow. The fairways were actually in the best shape of all the elements on the course. They do provide drinking water on the course which is great. The Staff was very helpful and pointed out features of the course to look out for. Price is cheap so you get what you pay for. I would play again just for a practice round to work on your shot angles an…

Visiting family in the area. I made a last minute tee time and brought my pre-teen daughter along as a ride along. The staff was super nice (5 stars). The course had some spots that could use some work, but the price and friendly service made the overall experience great. The pace of play was great. To put this into context, i am a 29 handicap. While, i am far from a scratch golfer, I have certainly played at courses in better shape. However, the laid back atmosphere and friendly service made for a comfortable outing with my daughter. i would definitely recommend and play again when I am…

This could be a great place to golf, but the management must be terrible. It lacks the atmosphere of golf club quality. Bartenders, greens keepers, and all the staff could and should be working in the local dive bars. Also, the ranger or pro shop allows players to jump in and ahead of players constantly. No professionalism at all. Too bad, I won't be back after over a dozen tries.

Worst golf course I have ever seen, you can't tell the fair words from the rough.The greens literally are nothing but dirt and clay. The pictures you see online are so outdated is pathetic.
