i am no pro by any means, but the owners of this course are trying to be too hotsy totsy for me, i have played this course many times in the past and enjoyed the older ownerships, this particular ownership is unfriendly and kind of stuff shirt attitude, the workers in the field were very unprofessional, at one time when i was chipping i was face to face with one of their workers on a tractor and the engine running, very unprofessional !!! on the back nine they were filling in a sand bunker and me and my friends were coming up to our tee. One of the workers yelled at us saying to keep our cart on the path or we will kill the grass, at most the cart path was a rock road, and the grass they were talking about was weeds. besides the 2 wheels we were chastised about were about 5 in. off the path.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Condition of Course, Layout, Price, Ambiance, No Houses on Course
