Came here with the family yesterday for the first time. Being unfamiliar with the area, I wasn't prepared for the amount of people and traffic in the area. I'd definitely think twice before coming again on the weekend. The clerk at the check in desk downstairs seemed just as thrilled to be there. All we were told was there would be a 20 minute wait; no specific time, which course, if our group would be called.or what the process was. We walked upstairs to figure it out on our own. Just a heads up if you require an elevator. There is only one and it was out of service. We passed a misfortunate couple trying to lift a massive stroller and carry it down the stairs. We ended up grabbing a table near the bar to grab some drinks and appetizers. We waited around 10 minutes before we were greeted by our waiter. The chips, pretzel bites and fries we ordered took quite a bit to come out, considering how simple they were. They were pretty on par for bar food. I liked the ambiance and decor. After we ate, we went to the course area and discovered there were three differently themed courses. A winter lodge course, illusions course, and one that appeared to be a lovers lane theme which was packed and we didn't get too. Each course was 9 holes and while the decor was different, the holes themselves weren't that unique. I really appreciated the electronic scoring system, not having to keep up with a paper and pencil. It was very efficient. Staff is usually visible nearby so you can order, pay and get a cocktail while you play as well with convenient tables located at each hole to set down your drink. Overall had a good time for drinks, food and golf. Just wish there was more creativity with the course designs and layout.
