Had Dinner at 19 holes restaurant. It is a perfect ten all the way. Excellent service and the food was outstanding. Plate one is the beef brisket, second is twin filet mignon, third dish is the polenta with cheese and spicy shrimp. OMG it was out of this world. Big plus we got to see a beautiful falcon when we arrived. The fire was beautiful. It was a perfect relaxing evening. I give them a 10+++++++ I love this place

James Baird Golf Course is a very good course and well maintained. $32 for 9 holes and a cart. Mostly straight fairways and level greens. They have a great restaurant with a bar. The staff is friendly and the food is very good. You can eat inside A/C; in a covered patio with fans or outside on the terrace with umbrellas. You have to reserve online and pay via credit/debit card (no cash).

My family and I rented this space for a family field day. It was perfect. We had enough space to play some games inside but also in the grass next to the pavilion. Bathrooms are right there in the pavilion and parking lot. Very clean. Shelter 1 is isolated which is good because it gives your group privacy. Totally recommend.

Very nice park. I took my dog on some of the trails were well maintained. They were pretty extensive with varying elevation which made it fun. There's also a picnic area and playground if you have kids. Dogs are not allowed in that area of the park, but are allowed elsewhere. Excited to go back to explore more of the park.

What a great park. I attended a wedding here a couple of years ago and it more than met the expectations of the bride and groom. More recently a friend invited me to golf (not that I really play). We really had a great afternoon. All the facilities are very Howell maintained and the grounds properly manicured.
