Needs some work

I know it’s early in the season but the course could use some work. The greens were in ok shape but the fairways are rough. Bald patches, weedy, and sparse. The lay out is unique. Drove past at least 2 tee boxes because the boxes were not near the signs. The signs did tell you which hole and the yardage but not what par was. Kind of strange. Sand traps were thin and hard packed. Cart paths are pit hole riddled and crumbling. Made for a very rough ride. I know it’s under new management so time will tell.

Excellent round

I played on the nicest day in February on Presidents Day. Considering the time of year, the course was in excellent condition. My only knock is that 1 guy was the entire staff and the grill wasn’t open and there were no Cart concessions. He was working really hard, I just wish he had help.
