A Fair Challenge

Front 9 most challenging with all the mounds and doglegs. Back 9 more open. The 2 9’s are completely different and course was very enjoyable.

Fun track. Nice layout. Friendly folks. Bunkers were excellent. Greens were in decent shape but very very fuzzy. Tee boxes were not great.

Wonderful course

Really like playing here. Challenging enough for high handicappers but not impossible. Greens, tee boxes and fairways look good, even with drought conditions. Greens played fast.

Overall good time every time we play this course.

Fair and Affordable

Played Dunes and Vista with a buddy when we were on vacation in Ft Morgan. Course was very fair and fairways were in good shape. Greens were in rough shape but it was in late September so I assume its because they've gotten a lot of play. Would definitely play again - every one was super friendly and the overall experience was pleasant.

Greens and Sand Traps

The greens were in much better shape than the were a week ago. The sand traps had rakes and were in much better shape, they were actually playable. Great job!

Golf course has went downhill recently. A lot of bare spots on and around greens. Greens are furry and bumpy. Fairways had thick grass on them. This course used to be a good deal, now I wouldn’t pay 10 bucks to play it.

Greens and Traps

Greens were fluffy, hadn't been mowed. The sand traps were terrible, traps were not prepped, no rakes in some only 1 rake in others. I am glad I got a hot deal for green fees, not worth regular fees, thanks.

Meh

Price was good course is burned up. Starter was nice cart girl was supposedly working but never actually saw her on course. Only one bathroom and one water fountain on the entire course. Save your money until it cools down and rains for a while
