This course is in great shape & has great features!

My husband & I really enjoyed playing here! Everyone is very friendly & nice - especially Paola at the pro shop and Mark the course marshall. My husband lost his ball retriever & Mark found it & brought it to him on the course.
We will definitely come & play again & would encourage anyone to check it out!

Was good course pro shop guy not so much

Was a great course but used this Golf Now to set up the tee time. The app wouldn’t let me pay it just reversed the tee time. So when I went into pay the guy working the golf shop was super rude about booking with the app. Said would have gotten a better price if I just called. Was super rude and acted like I was stupid for using the app kinda made it weird. Other then that the course was nice greens ain’t growing great yet but happy over all

Nice track . Great facilities

Enjoyed Cotton Creek. Staff very friendly and helpful. The course had nice fairways and greens and was quite challenging from the Blue tees especially with the winds blowing in on the back nine. Would recommend. A “private club like” experience.

Fun, playable course

Cotton Creek was a pleasant surprise. The course was in good condition, esp considering the intense heat of the past few weeks. Bermuda greens were soft, no bare spots (a surprise). Fairways were very wide, making the course friendly to the average golfer and helping out the pace of play. I finished in 3.5 hours. Plenty of sand, but not too much; traps were well maintained. Very nice value for a resort area golf course.
