Played here last week and really enjoyed it. Greens and fairways looked great, even this late in the season. I plan on returning soon, maybe a few more times in the weather holds.I would highly recommend checking this course out.

Not sure about the staff complaints that others have posted about here. Staff was friendly and attentive and the course was immaculate. I'll definitely be back.

Went on a curiosity to visit this place at 4 PM on a wednesday, walk rate was $26. Course was wide open (probably because it was steamy high 80s outside) in terms of traffic, when i paired myself up with a single handicapper in a cart, we managed to finish 5 minutes to 7, when the ranger reminded us twice on the course we had to be in by. Really tough conditions to score here. Your driver is not going to matter as much as your mid and long irons (There aren't too many short par 4's here, and only one par 5 on the whole course - the first hole) . Strangely one of the par 3's on the back had a temp green (strange in september) which was slightly disappointing but you can tell they put a lot of care into this course -- greens standard county cut, which is high, rough was pretty gnarly on some holes (on 10 my ball found the side of the green mound and took me ten minutes to find and two shots to get out). Clubhouse was standard, mens room had a few lockers and at least a small bench so I could change out of my work clothes quickly. My playing partner warned me not to come on the weekends (its not the easiest layout for a hacker), which is fine since I quit a private club and end up at Flanders, Galloping Hill or wherever the most pleasant 4 and a half to 5 hour round is available. I'll be back.

I played there every week last summer (2012) and once this year so far. I find the staff to be very friendly and efficient. The course is maintained very nicely. It's a very hilly course, but I enjoy playing there. Sure, it's crowded, what course isn't, but they schedule the tee times so that one group is not chasing another.

Great course for a public county course. Staff is good, not sure the issues other had.
They could improve food options.
I agree that it is impossible to get early morning time even with 10 days advance and internet. Internet was supposed to be an equalizer but not for morning tee times at this place.
Overall a good course.
