Average Hole Difficulty
Course was a little scruffy recently. Looked like a horrible pace issue on a recent Saturday, but still made it in 4:30. Good layout, but a little odd on many holes. Played based on a deal of $44. The clubhouse staff was great but the clubhouse and cart service closed at 3 due to a wedding. Layout is good, course is challenging, but conditions were bad. Greens were slow and shaggy, rough was spotty, and tee boxes were beat up. Pace was okay on the front but horrendous on the back with no rangers. This was once a decent course, but it has fallen to a fairly serious degree of disrepair. For this reason, I doubt I will play this again. The fairways, for the most part, are in decent shape. The rough is either non-existent with rock-hard ground in it's place(granted, little rain recently), or patchy with different weed-like grasses. The greens were beginning to get crab-grass growing. And, in late July-August, there is a SERIOUS locust-killer (large insects that look like hornets) issue, mainly around the greens. Good challenging course. Greens were being aerated, but would have been tough in normal conditions anyway. Good value for the area, especially w/ readily available discounts. Played on a cloudy, drizzly day so was not crowded. Greens recently aerated so not a true test, but challenging course and worth a visit. Pace of play was a little slow due to a group three in front. No Marshall in sight to maintain the normal speed of a round. Front nine was being top-dressed so we played back 9 twice. fairways, greens in good condition. will definately play again before the tear is over. Your Review
