|  | Reviewed by: dirtstud, Shoots in the 80s Summary: Okay, the gnats were a problem and very annoying. This course is extremely tight with many narrowing fairways and a few holes with blind tee shots(beware of #18). It pays off to lay up frequently and play the directional flags as this course has numerous strategically placed trees. A long ball will not help you on this course. Play for accuracy. This course was well manicured, but the greens are terribly slow. However, the staff warned us before we played. They need to open the putting green. It appeared in good shape, but was closed. Customer Service: Very good. Very friendly folks, but they need a cart girl. Similar Courses Played: For the money you need to make a drive to either Eagle's Landing or River Islands. River islands is well worth the drive if you are in the area.

A lot of tight holes and like some of the other posters the course was not finished as well I a expected considering its marketing. I had a bad day playing but the other 2 gentlemen we played with was awsome and good company. Customer Service: Fair. I have had nicer in a vacaton area

|  | Reviewed by: guitarzen67, Shoots in the 80s Summary: I was unfortunately able to play a round with my son-in-law while on vacation.
The moment we pulled up to the starter; it started! GNATS!! From the first tee box and green to the eighteenth tee box and green, you can’t believe it. At the turn, the girl in the concessions area asked if we liked their little friends. Ha Ha!
This place has a problem. After we arrived back at the condo my wife noticed small specs of blood all over the inside of my left leg and under my right forearm.
It finally dawned on me what it was. SAND FLEAS! Yes; blood sucking sand fleas. I ended up in the bunkers about three times that day and the sand blasts landed on the inner part of my legs. They drew blood.
The course was set up as if they built it to fit the landscape. If a creek crossed six times; then you had to lay up six times, sort of speak. Hole number16 If I remember correctly, was a hard straight up trek to a 80 yard par three that had a matt for a tee box. A local said that the older gents skip this whole, depending on how they where doing so far, determined what you put on your card for that hole.
If you have been in the trees all day you got a bogey….. And so on.
This could be a nice golf course. Take the high green fees and put them to better use.
This course has no one to come around with refreshments. At that price, a steak dinner should be served as you cross eighteen. ?
Customer Service: Not available. Similar Courses Played: Off bug spray and a flea collar for your ankles.

|  | Reviewed by: Joe Vandal, Shoots in the 80s Summary: Many like this course, but I am not one of them. It plays no better than most local munis and costs twice as much. The setting is nice, but there are so many courses that are better both for play and scenery.

|  | Reviewed by: John Buchenberger, Shoot in the 90s, from Raleigh Summary: I played Memorial Day weekend 2001
This course is NOT worth the fee. I spent $50 to play after 2PM.
Layout - POOR
The front nine had many back and forth fairways. The par threes were very short. The course was very tight with many roads, cars and houses very close to play. On 12 I hit a 120 yard approach shot that landed within 10 feet of the green, struck the cart path, struck a road and struck a house.
GREENS - FAIR
The greens were healthy but were long and very slow.
TEES - FAIR
One tee was made of artificial turf because grass could not be maintained.
Similar Courses Played: None
