Greens were fair, fairways had lots of mixed grass, patchy.
Not worth the $50 plus cart fee.

Overall fun course
Played twilight hours so the price isn’t bad for the course condition and pace of play was pretty good. Usually at that time you can expect lots of waiting. A lot of ground under repair areas that you’ll need to avoid as you approach the green. Greens roll slower than most greens in the area but in overall good condition. Saw the cart girl twice which was great for that time of day.
