The course was great and semi challenging.

With a great mix of bunkers and water to play around,

It was a great semi challenging course for a player getting back into the game after 15+ years!

Nice course

Solid course with a few mud areas in the fairways. Make sure to bring someone who knows the course otherwise the layout can be a little confusing.

Great course turned HORRIBLE

Ever since new management came to the scene, this course has turned into a pile of trash. Most of not all of the greens are rotted with weeds growing in them. Seems like there’s no greenside maintenance, let alone any course maintenance at all. The Marshall that was here this day was cool, but other days in the past it was the older dude who had a stick up somewhere. Range grass is torn up but that’s been the norm. Chilling green isn’t even a green at this point. Putting green feels like carpet, but that’s the story for most of the greens.

Moral of the story here, save your money. Can’t believe they charge this much for just a layout which is what made this course so great in the first place. Now the conditions outweigh the layout

Strange experience

In from out of town from LA and booked a time to play as a single, got the reminder email for my tee time and everything and was supposed to go out at 9:30. I get to the course at 8:30 to warm up and the pro shop guy says my tee time isn’t in the system and to talk to the starter. I go see the starter and he says I have to tee off immediately to play so I didn’t have time to grab food, or warm up. He also said I couldn’t take the golf cart they already gave me and had to junk in with another single which is fair enough. Long story short just frustrating that my tee time was booked and wasn’t on their tee sheet. Round also took over 5 hours and many of the greens were rotting. Solid layout though and fun holes, but wouldn’t recommend it overall mostly cause I almost didn’t get out on the course despite having a tee time and was unable to warm up. They were all kinda jerks about it like it was my fault which was also frustrating. Also tried to order food on the 8th hole cause I was starving and, and just got a voicemail when I called. Pretty annoying experience all around.
