36 holes of poorly groomed farm pasture...Hopefully you are distracted by the scenery to not notice the poor conditions of this "golf course" and I use that phrase loosely. Whole number 1 looks like a farmer plowed right through the green. There are no fairways to speak of. I would have seen better conditions golfing in my own back yard. The club house - again it is hard to actually use these words - is a barn. The old lady (sorry don't remember her name) will direct you to a spigot of water on whole 14 where you can get a drink of water at your own risk. I could have done a better job myself of creating a green with a weed wacker. I could go on and on but I think you get my drift. In this case you get what you pay for.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Better courses for less nearby
No Houses on Course, Pace of Play
Condition of Course, Layout, Staff, Clubhouse, Pro Shop
