Late June. The air thick and sweet as a peach. My daughter, home from her first year of college, had challenged me to eighteen holes "for old times' sake," which is a phrase children use when they intend to humiliate you.
By the 9th she was up four. She read greens like she'd written them. A double-breaker off the top tier, a long, curling thing that should have been impossible, and she just tapped it and walked after it before it dropped.
At the turn I steered us to the patio and ordered. Something farm fresh, I thought, something wholesome, something that would remind her I raised her.
The Farm Fresh Flatbread arrived crisp and wide, a flatbread pizza with manners. Oven-roasted tomato underneath, rich and slow. Melted mozzarella stretching from every slice like it didn't want to let go either. Roasted corn, sweet as summer. Avocado, cool and buttery. Little crumbles of goat cheese, tangy as a teenager's reply. Balsamic onions, dark and jammy. Fresh basil, torn and fragrant, and a drizzle of olive oil catching the light. You can add chicken. We didn't. It was perfect as it was.
She ate three slices standing at the patio rail, putter tucked under her arm.
I sank a twenty-footer on the 18th. She lost by three.
"You let me win," I said. She smiled and took the last slice. That's how I knew.

Came for the putting, stayed for the food. The double smash burger is unreal, crispy edges and that bacon jam. We ended up sitting on the patio for two hours after our round.

Ordered a round of BarTender's Choice cocktails from the course and they found us on the 11th. The Birdie Juice is dangerously good. Already planning our next visit.

The kids ran between the playground and our table the whole time. Tenders were hot and crispy, and they were thrilled with the chips. Easiest family night we've had in months.

Honestly didn't expect a golf spot to have food this good. The ahi tuna nachos and miso salmon were both a hit. The course itself is legit too, real breaks and tiers.

Brunch on the patio before an early round is our new Sunday thing. Chicken and waffles with Mike's Hot Honey, a Hair of the Bird, and a lag putt I'm still bragging about.

Lost at cornhole, won at ping pong, and the wings made up for both. Staff kept checking on us without hovering. Great spot for a group.

The Tequila Creamsicle tastes like summer camp for adults. Paired it with the Korean steak tacos after our round and watched the sunset from the patio. Perfect night.
