Right behind a tournament

My wife and I arrived early and got right on the course. Unfortunately, we were behind a tournament so it took over 3 hours to get to the 12th hole. We waited at every hole and finally left early. I thought there would be good views of the lake, but all the views we saw were across a busy highway. The course had some blind tee shots (OK) that went across access roads. This seemed like a bad idea to me. Staff was very friendly. I borrowed a driver after mine broke.

Nice

It was our first time playing this course.

Interesting layout with some nice lake and mountain views.

Play was slow as they allow walkers. Greens were slow but in great shape.

The course was in great condition, but the pace of play was horrible. Too many people booked too close together.

Really enjoyed playing the course. Nice challenge

We only had time to play 9 holes, but really enjoyed the experience. The course was in great shape and the staff was very friendly. We are looking forward to playing all 18 next time.

Affordable, but won’t go back

Pace of play was really bad. I waited up to 10 min on every tee shot. No course etiquette from other groups there. Tee boxes were in rough shape. Fairways were alright. Greens were soft.

Confusing layout, and dangerous. I almost got hit twice waiting to tee off on hole 2. Directly behind the tee box is hole 8’s green (dogleg right). Balls were flying everywhere.

If you play here, just pay for 9. You won’t be able to get through 18 on the weekend in under 5 hr. Also, no alcohol sold or allowed at the course.

Which way do I go

The course layout was confusing. Front 9 and back 9 where intermixed. Markings were not available to determine which way to go. Otherwise the course was nice and well maintained.

Different

Course was in good shape and pace of play was great. Played in the early afternoon on a Monday. The layout was a little strange. A few holes have a blind tee shot including one with a road going across 3 fairways. Not sure who is liable if you hit a car.
