The course is a decent challenge with various dog legs. The bunkers were under construction and there was a 90-degree rule. The greens were in great shape.

Great layout, great fairways and greens and plays very well. The price is phenomenal. It is very expensive to play this go to a Course. We’ll play again.

Excellent shape!

This course is in really good shape ! Weather helps but the ground crew is doing the right thing! Fairways are even and green, greens are smooth and cut perfect! Cons: lack of porta-potties, and no beverage cart?

Food offerings may be limited to a few snacks (no dogs or brats on a Sunday afternoon? ) and no bar service?

However... the golf was great!
