★★★★★“Course was wonderful! Friendly staff. I highly recommend this course”
★★★★★“Course conditions were poor with tee complexes having little if any grass. Rain checks were extremely hard to acquire after rain forced us to give up the round.”
★★★★★“A good challenge, creative layout.”
★★★★★“Unfortunately a rain-out day but staff were great and helped us get rainchecks which we used later in day under slightly better rain conditions for 9 holes”
★★★★★“Good course but not on a level with others.”
★★★★★“Funky layout through neighborhoods. Liked the course though.”
★★★★★“Very nice course. The folks were nice and helpful.”
★★★★★“Course was not in best of shape, again maybe due to weather, but it was okay. Of the 4 courses we played, the 4th best condition wise.”
★★★★★“By far the nicest of the 4”
★★★★★“Loved the course, and layout. Course was in great shape and the staff were awesome!”
★★★★★“Great course. Layout was fun. Only downside is the 3 spot hitting mats into a net as a range.”
★★★★★“Exceptional staff. Great, beautiful, course. Tim and Larry exceptional to deal with. Great team - Great course”
★★★★★“Booking us a course in that condition was pretty outrageous. In other circumstances, I’m sure it would’ve been a great course.”
★★★★★“Initial booking of the trip we were told that the scheduled dates for aeration were already determined, and our courses would not be affected while we were there. A week out on Instagram I saw that this course got punched. Craig said that he was going to look into it and let us know if we would need to switch courses reach back out to Craig several times and never got an answer. The course was also running a special at reduced rates which we did not get to take part in because we already paid full. These greens were in very questionable shape and would’ve been nice to be able to play a different course considering we flow down to play top courses.”
From the course: This review is dead on!! Carter's group were excellent and easy to work with i checked on Founders Club twice and really felt as though it would be fine in hindsight should have moved them. Completely on me Carter much apologies CK

★★★★★“Had afternoon tee time and a little backed on the box so maybe over booked. Good course, not great.”
★★★★★“Enjoyable course”
★★★★★“It has a great layout, but the fairways are too sandy! I wouldn't want to play it in the future!”
★★★★★“Course received a ton of rain the night before we played that stopped about 30 minutes before tee time. But midway the front, the course had drained very well”
★★★★★“OK condition, not as good as past years”
