Course has gone downfill

When I last played the course 5 years ago, it was a nice experience, Now it is not so. First, they have not water replenishment on the course and only one rest room at #4 of the course. Oh they say one after nine, but you have to struggle to find it, especially since the pro ship locks up at 3 pm.

No GPS on new carts, but one of our had a dead battery on hole 14. Calls to the pro shop futile because they closed at 3:00.. I had to interrupt our round to give a player a lift to the cart barn for a replacement. I was weary of the ordeal, so my wife and I decided to just go home.

Oh, while the tees, greens and fairways were in good shape, everywhere leaving tees, cart paths and greens we large bare areas. Very unsightly and and indication of deferred maintenance.

Pete Dye x 10

The sand traps had mud and were not raked. The rain was 2 days earlier and they had not been repaired. Mowing was active usually not a problem but they were not aware of players in the fairway. The PGA Championship was on the weekend before and the expectation was the course would be in great shape. It was not. We have always enjoyed this course and have seen it in better shape. Disappointed!

Great layout.

Overall great layout. Some areas currently under repair, and some areas burnt or in need of reseeding/water to bring it up to its potential (mostly around Greens so pretty noticeable throughout the round)

Beautiful golf course

Course in beautiful shape. Fairways open with hills on both sides adding some difficulty. Water hazards reasonable and very attractive.

Course Improved

The course is much improved from 2022. It’s not back up to the level of the 2010’s but you can tell this management is trying to bring it back. It’s always been a nice layout.

First Time

Greens and sand were in great shape.

Noticed multiple areas under repair (mostly making sand traps smaller or non existent, thank you!)

Areas between golf course and homes looked to need some help. Staff great.

Mediocre experience for $140

First impression was the grumpy guy in pro shop. The other staff seemed friendly and helpful. Course was in less than good shape. Greens were nice and quick enough. New carts with no GPS. I thought the golf course needed some TLC in many areas. Other cart in the group died and we had to push it for the last hole. Don't send them out inadequately charged.
