Nice golf course. Pleasant people , course is well maintained, short of cutting down a number of trees that appear dead for some time. Food in the restaurant was good too. The course is long enough and challenging enough so as to be really pretty ideal. Enjoyed the round.

I drive by a lot and its always up kept immaculately, But this was my family's first time at or in the country club. We had Easter Brunch here. Everything was amazing. The gentleman that greeted us was an older man. He was so friendly and nice, being a dad/grandpa he really understood how to talk to and interact not only with my wife n I but my 3 daughters. He complimented them on their outfits,asked if the bunny came and was all around AWESOME to talk to and pass the time. It took about 15 mins to be seated, but in all fairness we were 15 mins late for our reservation. The Seating overlooked the beautiful golf course and although it was packed, we still managed to get very good seats near the buffet. The food was AMAZING!!! There was a breakfast buffet,pasta,potatoes salad,veggies,chicken,beef,ham,probably a few things I left out as well. But our family's favorite part was the Omelette Station. That chef was banging out some of the most Exotic,Tasty,Whatever kind of meat,cheese,veggie combo you could imagine omelettes... My Daughter's n Wife LOVED THEM. I personally LOVED the Beef cooked to medium rare PERFECTION... Now I must say all of this was clearly enough food, BUT OH NO in another separate room were the desserts. Now I personally have NEVER EVER had or let alone seen such fancy,dainty,light yet delicious desserts and there was tables full of them. All in all it was a great lunch at a great place. I highly recommend it to anyone!!

If this place was not so close to my house and my son did not love hitting golf balls I would not step foot in that dome. If you are not a "regular" and they do not know you, the staff does not pay any attention to you. They never greet you, never say thank you, and the only words that come out of their mouths are sign here.... The buckets are over priced and yes they give you a punch card for a free bucket but you have to buy 10 buckets to get 1 free. When you get a medium bucket at 11 bucks that's 110 bucks to get one bucket for free. All the drinks are way over priced. They are the only golf course I have been to that wont work with you if you have a group of 12 or more. Very disappointed because it is a nice golf course and its so close to me. Please get better staff or get more training for them. Because I should not feel uncomfortable and unwelcome at a place I spend my hard earned money at.

I've heard that it wasn't too long ago that this course was in pristine condition. Perhaps the saddest thing is that it wouldn't take a whole lot to return it to that status. While I am FAR from an avid golfer, I know class when I see it, and this course falls below that benchmark. Weeds were abound in the areas of outbuildings, signage, and other places that a simple weedwacker could remedy. We had an 8:30 tee time on a hot summer day, and there was no beverage cart until after 11:00. While the water at the tee boxes was wet, it was lukewarm at best and didn't do much to quench the thirst. The halfway house had a "Closed" sign on the the windows, but there was an employee in the building. When asked if there was a beverage cart on the course, she replied that there is one, but it would just be stating now. As I started to walk out, she told me that she had beer if I really wanted one. When I asked about the closed signs, she stated that she was made to open up. Nothing in the way of snacks, so stock up at the clubhouse if you think you may get hungry during your round. For the record, we only saw the cart twice during the remaining nine holes.

The fairways were in good condition, and the greens were acceptable. There was a heavy rain the prior night, so the swampy bunkers were to be expected, I guess. It would have been nice if they had been at least raked, though.

The staff at the clubhouse was friendly, and the food was good. I'm glad that they added the draft towers to the bar, giving patrons better selection for their after round adult beverage.

At $30.00 with a cart for a weekday, it was a decent deal and the course was nice to play, especially for an amateur that doesn't know much better. They could definitely charge more with a few minor improvements.

Golfed 9. Have been there plenty of times. Very clean and kept up. This place has been around forever. Wide fairways. Couple of challenging holes. Sapphire 9th hole kills me. Golfers and staff are really courteous.

I reserved a tee time the night prior to my visit. When I arrived there were 60+ people waiting around for cart pickup - there were no available carts. The tee time 1 hour before me had not even begun their round. Surprising! Wondering what their ranger/management staff was doing? They should have been working to move the pace of play along. I canceled my tee time and left. I will not be returning considering I drove 40 minutes to get there. What a joke.

I have been telling myself for years I wanted to go take a golf lesson and decided to finally do it. Spent close to an hour with Randy and can't wait to get out and play again. I will definitely be going back.

Golfed here few years ago, course was going in the wrong direction. I was told the greens have improved as of late, which is good. Reason for my review is because my father golfed there yesterday for $31, a fair price. He got rained out after 4 holes. He was given a rain check for $12. He didn t golf a full nine, so I don t understand why he wouldn t be given a rain check of $15.50?

The justification was,

That s what he wants us to do

I just attended a wedding there and the service was terrible, they never gave us any drinks even tho they were included with the dinner, they brought the dinner rolls out after they served the main dishes, it took over an hour after we were done eating for them to cut the cake, and the staff had really bad attitudes. They would look at you crazy if you asked for more food to your table when it was unlimited plates. And to top it off they wouldn't give the bride and groom any money back for such poor service. Very rude, wouldn't recommend it to anyone. And it smells disgusting in the back room and poker room.

Food was good however the website stated $15.95 per person EVERY Sunday. No Where on the website did it say anything regarding Easter Prices. It said "Every Sunday" It DID NOT say excluding holidays or anything like it. Needless to say, they more than doubled the price on Easter and we had no idea until we got the bill. The manager said "We should have asked when we called." This was the first year we ever went out for Easter so I had no idea. He did remove 1 meal off the bill but it was still over $400 for 10 people to eat. Will never go back or recommend to anyone.
