Greens weren't too bad, but with all the trees, there was always a lot of debris on them. Fairways were very inconsistent, weedy, and not well groomed at all. The layout is interesting with the 9th green being at the furthest point from the clubhouse, making playing 9 at sunset challenging, but overall the design is nice.
A large number of geese have made the course their home, so there are live geese and all of the issues that come from that to the point where it is definitely a detraction and can make for some very 'messy' shots, not to mention filthy shoes and golf carts.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Better courses for less nearby, Worse than average course for the area
