Owners and management get an A+ for warmth, friendliness, and helpfulness. The course gets mixed ratings because the fairways are in great shape but the greens are veeeerrrryyy sloooowww and quite bumpy. The scenery around the course is very pretty.

Alert! Go play willowbrook. This is not a golf course it. Because nothing qualifies it to be a golf course. Trust me the greens are better in horse pasture. This is #3 green. You have been warned!

The staff was super helpful and friendly and there was absolutely no rush whatsoever on the course. Very beginner friendly. You don't have to be very good to play and not feel embarrassed. The greens were not the best but they are trying to get them better. For the price I'd highly recommend it.
