I was also able to play here with the other guru’s. When I walked out onto the dining area that over looks the 18th hole I knew this was going to be a great day.The weather was warm and sunny and as others have mentioned the course is visually stunning. The fairways are emerald green with very nice landscaping around them.
The staff was friendly and helpful. As calligolfer mentioned we had a great conversation after the round about the measures the use to keep the course in such outstanding condition.
I enjoyed the layout a lot. There are no blind shots and enough water and other features that make you think about your shots. As we worked are way around we all commented on the fact that there was really no parts of the course we could find fault with.
Fairways have great coverage and a good cushion to hit from. The rough is cut low enough that you can find your ball but still make you work a bit to get out. The bunkers are great. Really good sand and rakes. I was in a couple and had good lies and almost forgot to rake them being used to what we become used to.
The greens ran medium fast and had lots of subtle breaks. They were a pleasure to putt on.
As always a big thank you to the other players for making this a fun round and thanks to Johnny for setting this up.

Played here on Monday 1/11 with a 7:40 tee time. Paid $51 to ride which is about what this track is worth. Got out about 5 minutes late due the tee box being mowed. Checkin was quick and easy. Range and putting green was open.
Played the whites and the tee boxes were in very good shape ,good coverage and most very level.
The fairways are good for winter conditions. Most have very good coverage but there are some brown/dry spots. The rough is cut very short mostly only about 1 inch.
Bunkers have good sand and being one of the first groups they were still well groomed but still no rakes.
The first couple of greens were a little damp and slow but as things warmed up they ran medium quick and smooth. Very few ball marks to deal with. Seems like players here are doing a good job repairing them.
Pace was 4:10 even though we waited on a few holes. No cart service but the snack bars at the turn and at 15 are open. Did see a few groups sitting at the tables outside of the clubhouse when I left. They seemed to be very busy when I left with two courses here the parking lot was jammed.
I enjoy this track. The layout suits my game and offers enough variety to be interesting without any tricked out/blind holes.

I wanted to get in one more round before some finger surgery today and I found a 7:30 tee time for 12-16. Glad to report that this track has improved greatly since my last round here in early Oct.
Tee boxes were a mixed bag with some a little beat up and others fine. The fairways have good coverage and were cut just right to get some good rollout but still easy to hit from. There are some thin/dry spots but not bad. The rough is a little long in places and finding your ball required some work. There are some bare spots if you get too far off line.
The greens rolled medium speed and held shots well. The speed was a little inconsistent.
Bunkers are what I have come to expect during covid ,mostly thin and compacted without rakes.
Checkin was thru a window at the back of the shop. Range is open but practice green still closed. No cart today but snack bar window open at the turn cards only no cash accepted.
Overall a good round for a county course in winter. I cant play for two weeks but I will be back here in the new year.

I also played with the gurus here and had a great time with Johnny,Greg and Mike. We played in 4 hours with no waiting. I can concur with the other reviews that the Goose is in great shape for the middle of Dec. Tee boxes,fairways , rough all in great shape. Never had a bad lie and no problem finding a good spot to tee off. I was not in a bunker but they did look to be a little compacted and damp. I play here a couple of times a month and always enjoy the round because the staff are friendly and the conditions are some of the best around. The pace of play is never much more than 4 hours.

Played here 11-26 on a cool clear morning. Went as a single and was paired with a threesome of nice guys who had been members when it was private. They all lamented that how much the conditions have changed. Like the last review the fairways are dormant and hard and thin. It was almost better to be in the rough which was not too long and easy to hit from. The bunkers are typical covid conditions with no rakes and lots of footprints with the sand wet and compacted. The greens were soft and really need at cut and roll.
We were behind a foursome who were very slow players and we waited on almost every hole so it took 4 1/2 hours to finish.
Check in was quick. There was a hand written sign saying there was an extra charge if you wanted single rider carts. Did not see a drink cart so if you wanted something you had to go back to the clubhouse.
I don't think I will play here again until spring and the fairways come back.
