Nice course, wet weather

The course was in good condition, and the pin placements were fair. The greens are a little slow, but overall very nice to play.

Not updated

First, the staff was great! They were helpful and accommodating throughout.

The golf course was not in acceptable playing conditions. I read reviews and can’t believe that they are real after visiting this course. There was not one ranger and the round took 5 hours and 35 minutes. The pictures are a complete sham depicting the course from years past.

Nice staff / amenities

Nice staff and amenities, but really lacking a marshall. Took over 5 hours to play with three hours being on the back 9 with a 4 group traffic jam.

The group ahead of us decided to leave rather than wait.

Painful Experience

Five plus hour round. Zero ranger presence. For all the rain we had there was an awful lot of dead spots. Greens like a dusty pool table. Used to be worth the drive in high season.

Good condition

Played very early on that day, nobody was in front of us so pace of play was great. Greens and fairways were in great condition. Sand trap were ok. Some of the rough need some work but overall ok.

Windy Day on the Course

Since we have played the course many times I know what to expect in general. This time we found the tee boxes to be extremely hard and very difficult yo place tees in the ground. This despite the rain that has fallen this year. If the tee boxes could get some attention that would really be appreciated.
