Challenging layout needs restoration

I hope someone is able to form an investment group and sink some money into improving this course. I have no idea what their finances are like from other revenue sources, but it seems this is a great design of a course that could really use someone making a financial commitment to restore the course to what must have been its former glory. As far as playing, it is tight, with narrow tree-lined fairways that will get you in trouble if you are hitting it sideways. Sloping and winding fairways make for challenging drives and approach shots. A great place to take an assessment of your long game. The greens would very dangerous if they were restored, as they are quite sloped also. WP also sits in a very nice community, which let you see the potential here.

Not worth it

Tee boxes are terrible. Fairways have very little grass. Very tight and tree roots on all edges of every hole. Carts are old, slow and uncomfortable.

So bad

Go anywhere else. This is worth $25 tops. Bad carts, dirt fairways, debris everywhere. Blind shots galore. Bad design

Could be so much more.

First and foremost they charge more on golfnow then the actual standard rate which i have NEVER experienced. They didn't not have crew out at all. Greens not blown off, tee boxes not mowed in days and whoever cut them last didn't even put a significant number of tee markers back. Course plays tight and will make you hate your driver. A lot of potential amd worth a try.

Rough shape, slow play

Not a huge fan of the type of golf this course offers. Blind shots, target golf, etc. Course wasn't in the best condition, not terrible but not good either. Played behind a 6-some on the back nine for some reason. Never saw a ranger. 5 hour round which is unacceptable considering the early tee time. Price was ok for what it turned out to be. Probably won't visit this course again though.
