It’s relatively expensive for the course condition and length. Most of the staff is super helpful but there is no real rule enforcement so people will just jump all over the place and cut in front of you. Plus some of the older members there play slow as crap and don’t let you play through.

Much improved over the last several years. A short but challenging course. Great to work on your short game. friendly staff and very reasonable green fees. Some tea boxes could use a little attention, but overall a great value

I like the course. The greens were in very good shape. A lot of rough areas in the rough that would be considered ‘ground under repair’ at most courses. This course is very difficult. It could use some tree pruning on a few holes.
