Slow Play, No Beverage Cart, Under Construction, did I mention slow play.

A 3 hour 9 holes is insane. No beverage cart service and average course conditions. Wouldn’t go back.

The best course I’ve played this year

I do not understand the reviews on here that put this course lower than 4.5. Except maybe the slow pace but there was hardly anyone there. lol
But I’ve nothing at all bad to say about this course. Everything from the tee beds to the greens were exceptionally good. The course layout great. Challenging but fair. Great friendly staff. All around great day of golf. Highly recommend and will be back.

Awesome course. Challenging but still playable for the average golfer. Each hole was scenic and the course was in mint condition in the middle of October

Busy day on the course, beautiful fall day

One of the last really nice days to play golf. Dwindling temperatures and daylight. I felt like everyone had the same idea I did to try to get 18 in. So pace of place was pretty slow on the front we started 30 minutes behind our tee time. But once things got going we had a nice day on the course.

Nice course - slow play

The course is pretty and in good shape. But even on a Mid-morning Wednesday when the tee time sheet was not full, the play was slow. There were a lot of foursomes of old men who just move slow and take their good sweet time with no regards to pace of play. Even though we skipped the tenth hole at the turn to get in front of a couple of groups, we still had over a 5 hour round.

Great track in excellent shape but…

A starter/course Marshall would be highly beneficial as some groups ahead of us were completely oblivious to reasonable pace of play standards. Also, I witness many golfers from this region who do not repair pitch marks or rake bunkers which is inexcusable. Keep moving and take care of the course people!

River Glen - Great views

I really love the river terrain and great views on this course. The staff is aways great and I like the grill setup for a quick burger or dog at the turn. I'm not sure if there was an outing the day before but the greens had a bunch of unrepaired or poorly repaired divots. Pace of play was rough with a 10 minute late tee off followed by a 4 hour:40 minute round.

Great Track - Very Slow Play Kills the Experience!

Really like this golf course. I’ve played it a handful of times and every time the play is unbearably slow!! I was part of a threesome and it took us 5 hours to play. Behind.a 4some who wouldn’t let us through and we waited on just about every shot. Suggestion: put a ranger on the course and space the tee times a little more. Definitely will choose other courses moving forward.
