Love Vanny
Early round in March is what it is. Pin placements were BRUTAL though. Everything was at the corner of the green. They need to move them to the middle at this point of the season.

Early season pandemic conditions
It is a nice course that can be pretty interesting under normal conditions, but it was not in great shape and hole 16 was closed (along with the facilities, but not their fault). Definitely worth the money, but there is a reason you can usually find a tee time.

4 holes closed with no mention
The final four holes were closed and the only reason we found out was finding a locked gate after a long. No discounted rate and when we spoke to the starter about it he rudely said he told everyone we should’ve known. He definitely did not mention it
