Nice layout, pleasant staff

The layout and playability were great. Pace of play was slow. We teeoff off at 12:45 and about 4:30 ranger came out and mentioned carts need to come in. We were at hole #15. Pathetic.

Perfect. If you have a deal for us, you're very welcome!

Everything was perfect.

Last year, was our first experience and desappointed with the staff experience.

But this year, what a great change. Couldn't ask better and will recommend this place to anyone.

Pace of play was slow and they did overseeding. They should have adjusted the rate due to this and cart path only always slows up pace.

Vacation golf

If course is overseeding they should let you that it will be cart path only. Cart path only makes a lot more walking. The rate should be less in these conditions.

Slow slow play

We found the play slowed up considerably by the 5th hole. We found ourselves waiting on every hole at least 5 minutes or longer. There was no Marshall to be found. It took us 4 hrs & 52 minutes to play this round. They show it should take only 4.12 to play. We should played this course in 3.45 max.

Please pick up the pace
