Golf Course Opening

We are pleased to announce that the golf course will open Thursday March 17th.  Those who wish to play can walk the course beginning at 8 AM- carts will not be allowed until further notice.

The protective covers have been removed from the greens and we have also rolled and mowed the greens once.  The sunny, breezy weather is helping to dry the golf course.

The course came through the winter in excellent condition.  There is no winter injury or snow mold on any of the greens, tees, or fairways.  You will notice many sticks and leaves throughout the property.  Please be patient- it will take time to clean the course.  We will make significant progress beginning in April when our seasonal staff arrives.


We are hoping to install the net along the driving range next week.  The determining factor will be the weather.  The process takes 4 men 4 days to complete in good weather.  It is unsafe to operate the large lifts needed for the task if the weather is too rainy or windy.  Once the net is up we will open the practice tee.  Please continue to use the indoor facility located at the west end of the range.
