Came here for a wedding actually. As a rule I have a great distaste for country clubs because of…read morethe snoot factor. This place is no different. It has a well manicured 18 hole golf course, nine more holes (27 total) gym, two pools, tennis courts and all that. It also has a clubhouse which is the focus of my review. First off, this is the ugliest clubhouse I've ever entered. Think Little Rascals He Man Woman Hater's Club if you're that much into club houses. Ugly brown crown molding, ratty carpeting, ugly beige walls and exposed wood ceilings. The lobby looks like a mausoleum too. After the ceremony in a non cool room (idiots turned on the heat by mistake), we were sent into the reception area, which was the south room and adjoining spaces. At least they actually had on the AC in here. Open bar and passed canapés as one would expect. Some of these canapés including bacon wrapped scallops stand out because they were AWFUL!! I almost spit out the spinach pie; I should've known better when I saw them drizzled with heaven knows what. Scallops over cooked and lousy...at least there was an open bar. After two dark rum and colas, I even had enough of that; cheap lo-rent swill. Salad was simple mixed greens with a slice of cuke, some red onion and a couple of CHILLED cherry tomatoes. Well, there was the next sign that the kitchen doesn't know what it's doing. Tomatoes are supposed to be room temperature; period. Dressing stop said salad was nondescript. For entrees the Queen Bee had crab stuffed grouper and I had filet mignon. Filet was bland but had a halfway decent demiglaze with it. Queen Bee didn't care for her grouper. Everyone else at the table seemed more or less okay with it. To be fair, I didn't try the stuff. Both entrees were accompanied by overcooked asparagus and bland rice pilaf. Blech! I'm sure the wedding party paid good money for this stuff. If this is any sign of how their dining rooms are, then kindly include me OUT of this club. I'd rather graze on the grass from the 10th fairway. The desserts you see are provided by an outside bakery so nothing to say here. Not really much worthwhile or positive to say about having a function here, either. Have it at Chuck E. Cheese or a bowling alley instead! Eh!!

My young boys and I were disappointed to find it had been Renovated for some time now with toxic Turf and plastic/metal playgrounds. Playground felt much smaller this way than when it had been wooden with plank beams running throughout. It is also incredibly packed, but I think that's also because there is a sports complex here and I'm assuming many younger kids are here playing on the playground while older ones play sports. The upside is that it's still a public playground and an outdoor activity for kids. There are bathrooms in the playground area so that's a convenience.

Lots of options for lunch or just to eat a snack. There is also a bathroom, which is really convenient as you don't have to leave the play area or walk very far. It can get pretty busy on the weekends but is quieter during the week. They have multiple swing options, a small playground for younger kids, a larger playground for older kids, and various climbing/play structures. It is completely turf but is surrounded by a concrete walkway- so pretty wheelchair and stroller friendly. It is pretty shaded as well so you aren't being blasted by the sun. I would say this park is more suited to 2+. There are multiple climbing components that are pretty challenging and just require more coordination/strength.

Perfect place to take the kids to learn discipline and life lessons. My 3 year old grandson is attending his class and he's advanced quite well and is heading for his yellow belt and (hopefully) continuing on to higher ranks. Having been a 2nd degree black belt personally, I can't wait until my grandson makes 1st degree. This is the right place for him because these kids earn the promotions vs. just handling them out every 3-4 months regardless of qualification like other schools. read more

My children have been attending classes with the amazing Master Craig for over 5 years now. He is a wonderful reinforcement to the values we are trying to instill at home.

I cannot say enough good things about the way Master Craig runs this school. He is kind but tough. He really makes the kids earn their belts, which is the most important thing in the long run. My son loves going to class, plus it's the only summer camp that he wants to go to this summer. read more

Student commitment-Professor Robson takes pride in working with his students to become better Jiu Jitsu players. I have found that there is great structure in his instruction. Instruction-Professor Robson has an excellent way of putting classes together that progress during the week to string together. Meaning, if he teaches back takes he will likely go over entry, proper positioning, defense and submissions. The methods are proven and make sense even to the most novice of students. If you have questions, he is readily available to assist in the drill. Before I began training, I was able to watch a Kids seminar. professor kept it flowing and held their attentions. He is phenomenal with kids - which is not always easy to achieve. Bravo! Merchandise-There is Team merchandise available for purchase from Gis (entry level to competition type gis), no gi rashguards, spats and shorts, plenty of exceptionally designed T Shirts, hoodies, hats and such to show your team affiliations.
