Nice day on the links

We enjoy playing this course as the conditions are decent and the layout friendly for my wife. Challenging enough for myself as I can still make a mess of any hole. Greens are in nice condition. They are a little dry and were reasonably fast. Fairway is in good shape. Some of the tee boxes could use some work as I found I had to find the most level spot on some tee shots.

The course needs to have a cart person roaming around.

some good some bad

Played years ago and course in good shape and greens very good. Bunkers need work with sand so firm. Pace of play not controlled although Marshalls on the course. Told at one point they close up at 6:45. We got toward the end of 17 at 6:30. My playing partner wanted to finish to have a posting score and discussed with Marshall a couple times. We got to 18 and she could play but I was told I couldn't. Worst part was total rudeness of Marshall from the start. I was mad but didn't want or need to make a conflict. Could have gone to Pro but decided to just go. Worst PR I have encountered in many years golfing in the desert. Randy H.

Great Course at a great price

The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great shape. The rough needs some better care, and many of the bunkers need some new sand, or better upkeep. All-in-all it was great though, and we will definitely come back and play again. We tee'd off at 3:12 and were able to finish right as it was getting too dark.

Very nice course. Pace of play was great and so was condition. 18th hole is a bit gimmicky though. Strange hole to end a round. Will definitely come back.

Nice course in subdivision setting

We enjoyed our round here! The course was in good condition, the staff was really friendly and it was affordable. It is a typical layout in a subdivision setting with homes lining both sides of every fairway. There are several holes where water comes into play and hole 18 is a real challenge. Pace of play was kind of slow but the course was packed. My wife and I would play it again for sure!
