Fairways are overgrown and not in good condition. They are roped off for some odd reason. Certainly not to save the grass. Greens are hard and fast. Dyed to make them look green. Way too many Canadian geese messing up the whole course. Really the only thing good is that you can't play an more inexepensive course at the moment.

The course is improved since October. Fairway grass is good on most holes. The greens also improved but grass very short and fast.

Near altercation on 18

I was paired up with a golfer named John and we had a twosome playing in front of us. On the18th tee, we let the twosome in front to get close to the green before we teed off. When I saw no one the green, I hit My second shot put me on the green 10 feet from the hole. I then saw one of the golfers in front go over to look at my ball like he was going to putt it so I Hollered that was my ball. Then John who was near the green told him that that was my ball. The golfer on the green got very irate and walked up to John shouting profanities. At that time John pulled a club out of his bag for self defense. I then drove up to diffuse the situation and apologized as I thought they were done with the hole.the other golfer came over to calm John down and told him his partner was drunk and apologized for his behavior. This happened around 1:20 PM. I’ve played this course many times and more than often there are golfers who do not know the etiquette, drink a lot of alcohol, and will play 2-3 balls at the same time.

It’s sad they don’t take care of the course

Cart path only even though the grass is all dead and hasn’t been mowed in weeks. Half of the course is straight up dirt and weeds. Geese poop everywhere. Bathrooms are atrocious. For the price I would expect so much more. It’s so frustrating playing here that no money is worth it. I’m embarrassed for the owners, I wish they would have some pride and make the much needed improvements.
