This course has been badly mismanaged and maintained. It is now under new management and its on the way back, but it will take time for things to get back in shape. Most of the greens are in rather rather poor condition and the fairways are variable. Both are improving.
The new management is pouring water on the course to try to improve the greens and fairways.
The pro (Steve) in the pro shop is a friendly young guy who has his job cut out for him, but his personality will help to build a clientele once the grounds improve.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Worse than average course for the area
Price, No Houses on Course, Pace of Play, Staff, Clubhouse
