I Recommend This Course
Nice Muni Course
A very nice and challenging muni course. Nice layout and forgiving. Bunkers are fair..not bad without racks. Green are very tricky. Hard to keep balls on the small greens..when they toll off, you may be chipping or pitching? All in all, a local, affordable course.

Bunkers
Please put more sand in the bunkers. There are two bunkers around every green- they need to be playable this is my only issue.
