Spoiled a good morning

Very Nice greens, challenging layout, and always a good game, but lack of a Marshall and ridiculous slow play for a 6:30 morning tee time makes it a hard choice to go back.

Great course to play

Great course to play, great clubhouse, great Bar & grill

Only derogatory comment is the smell of standing water (which will become major mosquito haven) throughout the course

Best Shape in Years

Course was in the best shape I've seen in years. Management is doing a great job over the last 5 years improving it little by little each year. Greens are some of the best in the valley this year. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Excited to play again and add to my rotation of courses to play.
