Played May 2015. This was my first time playing the course, but I had heard good things from other golfers I knew. We played early on a Saturday morning and the pace of play was fine. We were walking and the course is flat enough and the layout is condusive to walking. The greens were in great shape and were very fast with lots of subtle breaks, so they were tough to read for the uninitiated. We played from the white tees, and even then there were 4 or 5 par 4's that stretched over 400 yards. The fairways are wide but often tree-lined. Overall, it's a good local course that I would like to play again, but it's not a destination course. The grill had a decent choice of items, but the eating area was very Spartan.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, I wouldn't recommend this course, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
