A bit Rough

"Mud and a 5 hour round" - that;s what the cart guy said to me as I was waiting for a cart.

"because we're cheap" he said.

He was correct - course doesn't drain well and there are some pretty muddy areas across fairways.

Play is slow - no ranger and folks on the course seemed to have had little interest in moving along.

Played here before, but it seems to be getting worse.

Don't see much investment in improvement either.

Poor pace of play, greens are terrible

For $60, can’t complain a lot. However, it isn’t really fair that they cram you in behind a tournament without telling you. 10 minutes late for us on teeing off. Pace of play for us: It took 2 1/2 hours to play nine holes. The greens are currently in really bad shape, like I know it’s winter but still.

Dunes is a bear if you do not know the course and the back nine was much more forgiving.
