Course itself is great, but I’ve been overcharged around half the time I’ve played here. Most recently, I booked a tee time direct through their site, and when I checked in, I was told “our usual rate is not that low, but I’ll put you in at that price anyway.” Weird to suggest you’re doing me a favor despite me booking direct through your site. I had also called the day before to ask about the cost of rental clubs for the round and was quoted $45. When the employee rang me up, the total was $40 more than anticipated. When I asked for an itemized receipt, the guy shrugged and said “taxes I guess” and wouldn’t give me a straight answer. I just paid and left so I could make my tee time. After the round, I came back to make sure I wasn’t overcharged, and the guy scrambled and said that the $45 rental club rate was actually just for 9 holes, and $80 for 18 (more than our twilight round). Called back a few days later asking what the 18 hole club rental rate is, and was told $45 🤨. Asked them why I was charged $80 last weekend, and the guy panicked and said “oh, that’s the rate if you were to come right now. We give discounts sometimes.” Wtf? If your employees are going to overcharge, get your stories straight. Still a fun course. Just check your receipts!

I honestly cannot believe this place is open to the public. Booked my tee time on Golf Now app during the week which was easy and seamless. It was my first time in 2025 golfing and the course was in great condition. Pace of play was great and the greens were well taken care of. I am looking forward to returning soon!

I really enjoy this place. It’s a nice meet up spot that’s easy to get to, provides good food, and easy parking. Their Friday events are nice and chill. The event manager Patricia does a great job at planning special events and is very determined to make sure guest are good.
