Wouldn’t Recommend!

The overall experience wasn’t pleasing. The course had fast and bouncy greens, long course, and lots of hills. I had to walk the entire course after not being given a cart even though i had already payed for it. I felt as i was being discriminated against because i had never dealt with this problem anywhere else. I have played at PGA West Greg Norman and many other courses and have never dealt with this issue. Indoor shop staff weren’t the best but outdoor staff were really kind and were overwhelmed with the fact that i wasn’t given a cart. I payed for 18 holes and was kicked off after playing 7 holes because the sun started setting. Let’s not forget i payed for cart and the 18 holes and wasn’t given a cart or even half of the course. I personally will never come back and do not recommend for others who “do not fit in”.

Got gipped on Twilight round

The main reason for my poor rating is that I played a twilight round. We had just finished the 15 hole and we had at least 20 minutes before it would be dark, and the marshal came by and started herding everyone in. I play a lot of twilight golf and this is the first time this ever happened to me. I like to play until I cant find my ball. I wasn't happy after paying $74. Also, Im sure if I played in mid to late November the course would have been awesome. But the course was in the final stages of being overseeded and the greens were really slow and needed a few more weeks to grow in. I played three courses this weekend an they all had poor playing conditions compared to when i have been out there at other times of the year.

Very fun layout

Course layout was very fun challenging but fair. Bunkers could use some work sand was very hard. Staff was awesome very friendly. Starter was friendly. Greens were slow but expected it because they just over seeded. Would play again just wish driving range was open.
