First time playing the course this year.

Course is in great shape , except for the green on 17, which inexplicably has numerous parts damaged and chewed up.

17 is a hole that seems like it doesn’t belong on the course as well. Kind of weird.

Great wide open course

Not your typical links course; this feels more like a traditional course minus the trees and some extra bunkers. Great course if you have a slice as the rough isn’t terrible either and there isn’t a lot of fescue. Greens were fun and in good condition; will absolutely be back.

Inconvenient Green roll

4hrs.30min over all walk to play. Pace is good.. fairways are in great shape. Bankers are enough sand to get out the ball. Greens are in slow roll side and most green has stone chips on surface, which mean couldn't get true roll, it totally change the direction without slope angle. Would play again definitely

A course going down hill

The course, layout, staff and club house are great. The course is in disappointing shape. The rough was very short, didn't look like it was growing in at mid-May, tee boxes were beat up, numerous stones/rocks in sandtraps. Always loved the course, but has not been properly cared for.

Great course for a great price

Course is recovering from maintenance like many other courses but at least they charge a fair price. Fun layout and in a month when the greens and tee boxes recover from aeration it’ll be a gem. Will be back
