I should’ve asked for a refund
I’ve given lots of reviews, and all have been honest and fair and this one will be no different. To save you the trouble of reading further, I’ll say this: Don’t play this executive course unless you can get it for less than $15 (because that’s all it’s worth)
I don’t care that the pro shop is in a trailer, but I do care that:
1) the tee boxes were crap
2) the greens were crap
3) the pace of play wasn’t horrible (because it was an executive course) but they had the following groups go out: 2, 3, 2 (my group), 2, 2. We waited every hole
The good news is that the fairways were beautiful and lush! The bad news is it’s mostly par 3’s so you’re never in those fairways.
The layout was ok…. Most of the par 4’s you had to keep your driver in the bag because of doglegs or hazards. Lots of water and sand on the course. Views of the mountains are nice if you can look past the apartment buildings.
It’s not a horrible course for beginners, working on short games, youth, etc. but not for the $45 each we paid.

The course is still rough but it was OK for what we were looking for.
This course is still in rough shape but so is my golf game. It's a nice course, fun and fast.

I gave this course shot but I was really disappointed. I believe they are working to get it back to the way it was, but it is not there, yet. Maybe next year!

Solid cheap par 3 course
They will cram you in with other parties but the conditions were nice. Putting greens aren’t consistent so expect to go on this course for fun and not for pro experience.
