Nice job

Course has come a LONG way from last year. Still the same issues with proximity of homes and tee boxes to greens but not much can be done about that. Keep up the good work.

lack of etiquette

Seven or eight of the bunkers were not raked by earlier players. Made some shots nearly impossible. Put up reminders so every player sees them multiple times.

Greens and Tees in fine condition. Some fairways, including first not up to standard for a "Resort Hotel" . Lots of room to improve.

Average course at best other than the greens which were excellent

This course is pretty pricey for the condition and may be indicative of February weather. Our playing partners who winter here were less impressed.

One hole closed for bunker work and another hole made into two par 3's??? Bunkers need work on whole course, but some were better than others. The fairways were very good on some, but others needed work. The greens were in excellent condition and if it had not been for them, the rating would be lower. Shuttle guys were great and so were the club house staff.

Fun course

Course was in good shape. Staff was friendly and helpful. One thing to note is that a shuttle is needed from parking to the clubhouse. Shuttle was prompt when called. Definitely will be back.

Value not tere

Fairway condition is poor, bunkers poor, greens good but firm

One hole was closed. Power carts in poor shape (seats split) and one cart died on course.

We’ve played this course was in pristine condition and for less money. Feel like not gettin the value we should for what is supposed to be a premium course

Golfer

I have played this golf course since 1988. It was the best course I had ever played at the time. When I played this week, the fairways were a disaster. Most courses in the valley are in their best condition ever. So disappointing. Interestingly, the greens were in fine condition.

What happened to this course?

I've played this course several times over the last 12 years, but haven't played the last two. All of the previous years, the course was in excellent condition. Not so much this year. Patchy fairways, rough in very poor condition, and bunkers needing much work. One hole was completely shut down and we didn't know about it until we made our way to that hole. No information about it from anyone. The only thing that made the experience enjoyable was the couple we played with. Thanks Steven and Kristina. So sad to see a course go down hill like this. We won't return anytime soon.

Good Value

We enjoyed our round. The green fees are a good value, the greens are great but the fairways and bunkers are not wonderful.
