Not on a Saturday

Would have been nice to know ahead of time that we could only play 7 out of 9 holes because of the kids program. Would suggest that golf now don’t put on for Saturdays. Course very short and tight.

Uncomfortable feeling

Course is simple and narrow. But, it was not bad course condition. But, there was a regrettable thing. some young adults played soccer with soccer balls in the golf course of hole. It was very uncomfortable and their high voice was some scared feeling. I think it is cause of none hole ambassador.

Small Greens but Big Message

This is a course for players learning to golf. Dime sized greens and short holes require precision - not power. Holes range from 70 to 130 yards. It was not crowded allowing players to hit multiple balls. Experienced golfers will want more variety in a layout.
Hole signs had great messages. See photos.
