This is a private golf course which opens to the public during the week and on non-tournament weekends. You must call ahead (24 hours) to register for tee times. The establishment is about 40 years old and the golf course has been well-maintained over the years.

This is basically a plantation turned into a golf course... very flat. A few of the greens and tees are slightly elevated but other than that there is hardly any undulations in the course. The whole course is bermuda grass which tends not to dry out and go fast in the hot summer weather. It plays much like an executive course... pretty easy without too many hazards.
The long tees are 6700 yards and the short are a friendly 5000 yards.
