Nice course
Nice course and I would have given it a higher rating but the starter stuck a threesome ion between tee times that slowed the entire course down.

Nice course, good condition. Sadly, it took us about 5 hours to play.
I was told this timing is pretty normal.

Soooo slow
The good.. we had 1:30 tee time and actually got out 10 minutes early, first hole was great
The not so good… we got to 2nd hole and there were four groups on the hole (par 3) and it didn’t get. much better all day despite rangers efforts to speed up play… we seemed to wait every hole… after almost 5 hours we quit after 16 holes….. we really like this course and have played it often, but this uncompleted round was painful !!
