This is a great course for what it is.
What is it you might ask?
A very inexpensive, beginner friendly, experience. No frills. Outside of two holes, not much in the way of challenges of water hazards to hit over. No sand at all. Most fairways are quite wide, and there is no real rough at all. You're hitting into fields which used to be pastureland. There are some woods to contend with if you go way off track, but for a golfer who can usually land in the 80-90 range on a standard municipal course, I absolutely shredded this place with a 74. Drove, or was within easy chip distance of 4 greens, and had a legit eagle opportunity which I lipped out. All par 5s were very reachable, on this particularly sun-scorched and drought ridden conditions we played in. Your ball had so much roll, it shortened an already short course.
By the way, it is a 9 hole course. Most holes do have two tee boxes to play a full 18.
The good:
So inexpensive that you can't really complain. 20 bucks to ride 18.
The greens are absolutely in fantastic condition, even during a drought. Which if you are going to pick something to excel at, that is the thing in my opinion.
Not generally a crowd to contend with, tee-times are not needed
Come as you are, not even the most remote semblance of dress code.
Very beginner friendly.
Friendly owners on site.
The bad (if it weren't so cheap):
Golf carts are in very rough shape, but functional, mostly. There is one hill you probably can't climb with two in the cart. There is another downhill which you likely won't be able to stop, so pay attention and drive carefully.
No cart paths, signs, course map, anything. Better go for the first time with someone who has been before. Bring a range finder.
No on course amenities like ball washers or water coolers. The clubhouse barn does sell basic snacks and drinks.
I didn't see a sign... but GPS took me to the right place.
All in all. I enjoyed playing here with my friends who are just getting started with the game. Plenty of opportunity to coach them and have fun in a no pressure situation. I would come back, and those who set their expectations on the price will love it. read more
