This is a good fairly competitive course. It's fairways and greens are in well manicured shape. The price about $31 for 18 with a cart for Seniors with a golf plus card was an excellent value. At the Time we teed off it was just starting to get crowded and a bit backed up! They sent out two twosomes after our foursome which kept pushing us, although we couldn't go any faster than the foursome ahead of us! I suggested when we finished that they put the twosomes off the back when several foursomes in a row are ahead of the twosomes! Letting one of the twosomes play through wasn't an option, because the foursomes ahead were already going slow. Things got better at the turn! I like this course very much and have generally always had a good or great experience. This is a city course, and well maintained and well managed except for the scheduling of twosomes right after a couple of foursomes. I would recommend it to good golfers as well as those in the beginners category. Their par fives are long enough to be a challenge as well as the par fours! The par threes are fun and prove to golfers if they hit it straight that you can easily be on in one and birdie or par them. The greens are mowed and maintained to the point that they are above average in their speed. Hole placement is challenging but not impossible. Bring your GPS as some spots off the fairway make the GPS a real asset.

A very nice muni. Overall, in good condition. Greens were firm but would hold a good shot. Bunkers soft & clean.
