Wonderful course! I've been driving past this course for over 30 years and always wanted to come play and finally made it. A monday afternoon round played in about 4 hours. Great atmosphere and friendly staff and members! Definitely be going back soon! Cheers! 83/18

Have played at other courses in the area and had never played here before. For starters you have to pay for range balls before your round. Once you get to the range you realize how rundown it is with only mats and balls that look like they are 10 years old. At one point there must have been a grass range but it is no longer maintained and rundown like much of the course. The carts are also old and have no club washer or cooler which is pretty standard for a golf course now.
There is houses on the majority of the holes with some being 10 feet off the greens. Even as a good golfer they are constantly on your mind as at any time you can hit it offline or get the wind wrong. It made for an unpleasant experience. With the amount of fences in front of houses and clear damage on many houses it shows how many houses get hit on a daily basis.
The course is burnt out and some fairways feel like you’re hitting off hard pan. All of the water hazards look like hazardous waste. You can tell the maintenance at the course is done as cheap as possible.
The layout is very weird with many par 3s close together and on the back 9 being back to back. The 18th hole and green are maybe one of the worst holes I’ve ever played and make for a terrible end to the round. I’ve never been so happy to get off a golf course. You could not pay me to play here again.
We played in the afternoon after 1 which made it $97 without range balls. I would have been even more annoyed if it was $20 more for playing before 1. Go to another course in the area for the money. I am still blown away by the fact we paid that much to play at this course. We had just played Talking Rock two days prior and it was in great shape.
The only reason it got 2 instead of 1 star is because the pace of play was decent and we finished in less than 4 hours.

Great course but unfortunately poorly run. First tee time isn’t until 8 am when it’s light out at 6 am. They won’t let you play as a walking single at 7: 30 even though I knew the grounds crew was already done cutting the front 9. I asked to play the back 9 at 9 am when the first group was on the 8th hole so I could stay in front of them and was still denied claiming the grounds crew would not be done, even though I watched them cut the 16th hole at 8: 45. Their members in carts play in 2.5 hours starting at 8 am. Tried to reason with them as I play a lot and know the logistics of a golf course, but it went no where. You would think the level of reasoning and customer service for a small town course would be better.

It was an excellent golf course. I really enjoyed it. Didn't help my putting but I guess I can't blame the course for that.

We didn't play golf. We went there for dinner for 3. We ordered appetizers and drinks which were good. Our main meal we sent two of the 3 dinners back! The food was terrible. We will not be back.

Great little golf course, some of the people who play here lack etiquette but the course is in great shape and the facilities are quaint. Lots of fun!
