Pleasantly surprised.

Encanto is a very nice course. It is just flat and long(er) than most. But was a pleasant change. We golf a lot....and have in 18 different states! We know nice course.

Pace of play was an issue

Need to have a ranger, otherwise it was a nice experience. Fun courses but very long!

Greens

Usually fun to play with good greens, however the greens were recently punched so did not roll well. Should get better in a week or so.

Fun and fast- 4 hour round. Despite the greens having been recently aerated, they were in great shape.

Very flat

Very short grass with no rough to speak of. If you’re not used to very tight lies, you’ll struggle with chipping. Shortest tees are 5600+ so not as much of an advantage for my wife. Course would do well to add a forward tee box.

Slow play

After 4 hours and 45 minutes I quit at hole 14.

3 to 4 group wait on every par 3.

Great course, great value.

Open, forgiving, not a lot of trouble. Really good shape considering we're in a drought. Read the Golf Now summary, it's totally accurate.
