Rough start

The first few holes were pretty rough, lots of brown and grey grass, the ponds were quite mucky, greens were not in great shape throughout. The fairways did seem to improve in "green" as we went along and got closer to houses. The rocks around the ponds looked like they had had really salty water up against them for years and nobody ever washed them off. Seems a good power washing of the rocks would make them look a lot better and spruce up trhe course a bit. Again, the first probably 5 holes looked like management just didn't care about them.

Course had it's run

I'm sure this WAS a really good conditioned course but now I don't think it lives up to carry the Gary Player name. The track itself is not bad, but conditions are not prime for the prime $$ being charged. Carts are worn, seats torn, no GPS, greens slow, fairways ok, etc. Unless you get a deal of around $75, skip this one.
