THis is bad, the coures conditions were very very poor and the comment was made that they need to increase membership to have the money to make improvements. Afetr what I saw I would never pay for a membership here. Overgrown, water satuated course but has potential to be a fairly good course afetr a lot of work. Has some interesting holes and about 8 less than average holes, all need major work.
Club house was built about 8-10 years ago and has nice facilities (food, drink and banquet), course was remoldeled then from a cow pasture state (worse than you imagine) but has gotten bad again (not cow pasture bad) just very poor for play.
If they were to spend money to improve the conditions of the course it might be worth looking at for a membership, We would never go back unless this was done first.
We did visit after a amjor rain storm but I took that into account and gave allowances for downed trees (a few) and the like, still pi...s poor.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Better courses for less nearby
No Houses on Course, Staff, Clubhouse, Pro Shop
Condition of Course, Difficulty, Layout, Price, Pace of Play
