Beautiful Day on a Beautiful Course

Everything except the sand traps was absolutely terrific. We played the free drop from the sandless traps and it made everything honky dory. No need to suffer as the course is tough enough and has a tremendous variety in the types of holes, altitude changes, challenges over gullies, and some narrow fairways, not to mention water hazards.All this and beautiful vistas too. Absolutely wonderful

Green fees

With terrible muddy and rocky sand traps and yellow grass, green fees should not be paid, unless your actually keeping the course to standards, which is obviously not being done. I'm watching the course slowly get worse. Also. Why is there no snack cart being offered when pkaying 18 holes and paying the fees you charge??? We saw it parked in front of the office, never came around on the course????

Unable to play

We checked in and paid only to find out that that there was at least a 45 minute delay. We had to cancel due to other obligations that we had. The person at the counter was new so not sure if we could get a rain check. Carts were backed up and even if we were able to get out it would have been very slow play.

No sand in bunkers

The sand traps are in terrible shape. There’s no sand in them and there hasn’t been for at least three or four years. We won’t be playing there anymore until you get some real bunkers.

Traps

Course layout is good. Fairways generally in good shape. Great views. Only downside for me is condition of sand traps. Rocks with very little sand. Unplayable. Groups I play with generally take relief without penalty from the traps.

Super challenging and fun day

Was impressed with the course and playing conditions. The bunkers appear to be under repair and virtually unplayable.

The rest of the course is impressive,

Course Overview

The course fairways are reasonably good but sand traps are more like gravel pits. There are areas in front of the greens which are unplayable.
