Always a solid learning course
Beautiful course for the beginner (but bring extra balls) as some fairways tight. Course was very dewey with a 7:20 tee time, but really in good condition. Never too crowded.
Slow pace, poor quality greens, staff non existent
Had to ride through three groups of people (one group of 6 which was inexplicable). There was no one on the course managing pace of play. Greens were aerated and a mess.
Okay
Greens are in rough shape. No beverage cart while playing. Nothing but a few snacks offered in the office. It’s ok if you don’t want to worry about getting a tee time, and just want to get some practice hitting the ball.
