BORING. FLAT, greens are A OK, but it is 18 holes of BORING. THe ability to have a water hole in the lowlands that flood whenever it rains hard would be a quality addition. This is a Munnie owned course...get the town workers to dig the big lake in the lowland, use the dirt to make some mounds, and toughen up this flatland course. The best hole on the course was eliminated in the renovation a few years ago, eliminating a fine par 3 behind the levy. Other improvements...on 8 and 9 put new tees into the edge of the levy, giving them a dogleg effect. almost all holes are straight...boring.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Average course for the area
Condition of Course, Price, No Houses on Course, Pro Shop
