First Time Playing

Great layout but has some issues

Played the course twice as it was the only course open in the area.

Great layout and played in 31/2 hours.

Cant be too hard as the entire area is still recovering from hurricane damage.

Bunkers were unplayable but rest of the course was in good condition .

Greens not fast but were smooth.

Will return after they've had time to recover .

First Time Playing

Fazio design?? Really....

Played there for first time today, only because I wouldn’t pay the $119 they always wanted. Got a deal on GN, so figured I would try.

Very boring layout and design. Back and forth, back and forth. Nothing really special about any of the holes. Very disappointed for a Fazio design. By the time I got to the back 9, I almost fell asleep.

I play quite a bit, and love a good challenge - something that makes me focus, or at least has some character.

In all fairness, staff was super friendly, course was in good shape considering 2 hurricanes in last 3 months, greens weren’t bad either.

Not worth $119 buck though, and maybe not half that.

I’m sure I’ll play it again, but only if it’s a really cheap rate.

Average but good course

Some tee boxes need attention. Greens are very slow. General condition of course is better than most. This isn’t a $100 golf course, but being at a casino drives that. Good, average course to go play if you don’t mind spending $100 to play an average course.

Sam Siatunuu's review

Excellent course, well worth my money. My wife really enjoyed herself playing. She doesn't play very much, so it was really great to see her enjoyed the pace of play and not be rushed.

Hurricane recovery

Course in good shape, all things considered. Greens were recently sanded but still fairly fast and rolled pretty good. Fairways in good shape, rough fairly thick but not unmanageable. They lost a lot of trees with the hurricanes but have done a good job of cleaning up. Sand traps were not playable as they have not yet been reworked since the storms. Many have water, gravel, or mud so we just took a drop. A nice place to play and no crowds to deal with during the week.

Great time

Everything was great! My only complaint is that we only saw the beer cart once towards the end of our round and there was no ice to be had. They did send out the help with a little ice for us after we left upset. It was only 95* with 90% humidity. Overall, it was great.

Great course

Course in excellent shape, greens were a little slow due to fertilizer and water maintenance but overall a great round.
