Incredible getaway. Tee times 15 minutes apart. Amazing price with amazing conditions on the course. Greens and fairways were A- and the course plays fast. Short track, lots of elevation changes. Just fun.

Nice quiet afternoon round. Happy I stopped in and walked nine holes. Course was in great shape with perfect greens. Friendly and helpful staff. The par 3's were pretty challenging. Several tight tee shots as well. Fun little nine hole. I would recommend Blue Lake.

This course is no joke. Fairways are good. Greens roll well. 5 par 3’s are challenging. Even the short par 3’s are difficult when you miss the green. A pretty fair test for the low to high handicappers. Speed of play is excellent. The Tee markers were difficult to figure out. Green/white?

Great times. Grass was a little taller so I lost more balls than usual unfortunately. Course is fun and the price is great. Carts are gas with plenty of power. Large bottle of lotion in the bathroom seems a little wierd since nobody wants to play with lotion laced hands. Cant help noticing and joking about it each time. Would return for sure with neon balls or better skills lol. Probably neon balls.

Nice 9 hole golf course. Very friendly staff. Moat of the greens are on hills. Do not want to chip on too hard as you will roll off the green!!!
