surprisingly poor

Pace of play was poor (~5 hrs), Tee box was muddy and the course was being aerated.. Not what I would expect at this course..

Worth every penny!

Beautiful course and wonderful experience! Well worth every penny. Staff was friendly and plentiful resources. Only complaint is guests not filling divots (sand provided on golf carts).

First time playing this course and we will most certainly be back. Greens, fairways, tee boxes, traps were all in good shape. Staff was very friendly and just had a great time.

Too expensive; poor value

Course is beautiful and a fun challenge!

2nd time playing and was excited to get back. Back 9 is even more impressive visually then the front. Challenging but perfectly kept and extremely fun.

Last to leave

First of all it is the perfect time of year to play this coarse, very green, well manicured, slight breeze and 70 degrees you cant ask for better.
Second the wait staff, bar, and greens employees are wonderful, friendly, quick and polite. That being said the management is rude and demanding, ( Next time you snap you finger at me and tell me to hurry up will be the last). How dare you treat a paying customer that way, you self entitled, pretentious weasel.
$408 for 12 holes was well worth it until
Mr. Wantstogohomeearly felt the need to open his mouth.

Slow twilight play

A nice course but a shame that pace of play moves so slow. If pace of play is slow it’d be nice and fair if that was reflected in the price.
