Great property and staff. Challenging course with lots of tree lined fairway and water features. Worth a visit!

Very decent course. Pro shop and bar people are very friendly We played first 9. Bunkers and lakes creates a nice challenge around the course. We were in cart and normally we walk. 1st and 2nd hole fairway is too close to the driving range. Overall 3300 yards for 1st 9 and poses a nice challenge and the course was maintained very well. Just lost 1 ball in total and hitch was fantastic considering all the hurdles including the lakes We did back 9 again this weekend. Right level of challenge. Great to play early morning and back 9

Unfortunately, this course has lost sight of what makes for an enjoyable round of golf. It’s become clear that their priority is catering to large outings rather than the everyday golfer. Tee times are jam-packed, and the pace of play is painfully slow—often grinding to a halt behind oversized groups with little to no course management in place. If you’re looking for a relaxing round or care about maintaining a steady rhythm in your game, this isn’t the place. Management couldn’t care less about the pace of play as it took 3 hours just to finish the first 9. As on the 10th hole they let a gro…

Well designed course that’s very challenging. Sand in the bunkers was pretty rocky, but course was in great shape for the most part. Small greens and quite a few doglegs as well.

Fun course with some challenging shots. Well maintained and has good deals during the week.

Horrible course. Called to make a tee time and “Peggy” said that we could play as many holes as we could get in- which was 18. We got yelled at, at 7:15 that we had to come in because the boy that washes carts didn’t want to stay until it closed. Do not waste your time/money here. Not to mention we payed for 18 holes not 9. A complete scam. Timber is much better fyi! Spend your money there!

I've always loved playing here. The people are very friendly. Like the course but it could be so much better. As someone else commented.... The bunkers need new sand. All of them. The greens are incredibly slow. I'm guessing they just don't have the money to maintain the course the way it should be maintained. That being said, I really do enjoy playing there

Played a round the other day. Pace was fine and the fairways were great but the greens were a mess. They need to have a class for ball mark repair.

I want to enjoy this course, I really do. It has an interesting layout and something to offer every skill level. However, it was in the same condition in late June as it was in late November: teeboxes, fairways and greens are rock hard and patchy. The greens fees are also quite high compared to what is available elsewhere in the area, albeit a bit west. Those two items when combined with apparent favoritism for early tee times mean I won't be playing here again for some time.

Heard of this place and decided to finally give it a try. Did 9-hole today and I must say, it was awesome. The lady at the front greeted me politely, and made me feel welcome (I am still a new golfer so just the process of going in to play by myself sometimes is a little daunting/awkward). Course wasn't busy around lunch time, the few people I saw were very friendly and polite. The course was in great condition, especially the greens. It is a little more challenging than nearby municipal courses and feels fairly big. Great environment, highly recommend!

Recently played there with a 7:06 tee time on a Saturday morning. It took 5 hours to play with no ranger or starter in sight to regulate pace of play.
