Great practice course

1st 9 was great, back 9 water sprinklers were on. Had to ask greens keeper to turn them off. He would wait till AFTER I teed off and walked to my ball. The greens were brown so needless to say the fairway & greens were drenched. Seriously affected my game.

Fun Course

Didn’t realize it was walk only course but it was easy to walk and finished in less than 2 hours. Fun to play, leave your driver at home, you won’t need it.

Walking course

Haven’t played in 5 years and needed to get my game back on track. I don’t mind walking the course. Good exercise. However, the heat was almost unbearable. Luckily, the course wasn’t crowded and was able to stop in shady areas to cool down. Loved playing again. OMG my game is really bad. Glad I didn’t embarrass myself at a big course.
