Value and course condition are mixed
Reviews are divided on whether the course is worth the price.
Many reviews praise maintenance—greens rolling well and fairways in good shape—but others describe rough fairways, slow greens, and holes under construction that limited play. Some reviewers connect those issues to value concerns, calling out high per-round pricing for an executive-length course or saying the course didn’t match what was disclosed when booking. Still, there are also plenty of notes saying conditions are excellent and better than nearby public options.
