Enjoyable Course, But I was bumped 3 times by Members who walked onto the Tee Box

My only qualm with this course is the staff. I was a single, paired with another single through GolfNow. The 2 of us were ready 10 minutes before our tee time, and both were frustrated by the starter, who went out of his way to allow members to jump in front of us before finally letting us out on the back 9. Once we got out on the course, I found it very enjoyable and playable. Most of the holes were very open. I really enjoyed that the last (9th) hole was a downhill par 3 over water, which gave me a chance to lock in a good score.

Staff Need Customer Service Training- especially Richard!

Our twosome was bumped to allow three foursomes of "members" to proceed... When I inquired I was told that memebers will always take priority over golfnow players and that my reservations clearly state I could be bumped. Richard who worked there then came out near the tee box and was blatantly rude to us, in front of the other three foursomes.
The worse part is that our twosome consisted of two 35 year olds avg. handicap 15 and the foursomes in front of us were all active older adults. The players acutally said we should proceed in front of them, as the course was wide open. Richard refused to allow us to go and instead launched us off the back nine after making a spectacle in front of the other players... Never again will I visit and I urge anyone who values service to stay away- unless of course you're willing to pay for a membership at an average public/ private course.

Glad I am not a member

I have been playing at least once per week for the last three seasons and this was by far the worst course I have ever played. I believe this is a semi private course, and if I were a member, I'd be embarrased to invite a friend to play here. The golf now deal was cheap, but honestly, I would never play this course again for any price. The fairways are burnt out and hard as rock, and the greens are all pock marked and thin. Even the range balls are bad.

Good layout, generous fairways, greens need a little work

The degree of difficulty is fair, course layout is condusive to scoring. The slope and challenges are fair. The greens need work as slightly bumpy and a little slow.

Better in the spring, pretty bad in late summer

The greens were more consistent in the spring. August was a different story. Very poorly maintained on a lot of holes.
