Course under upgrades
Greens heavily punched and sanded. Areas around green punched with significant tractor marks. Many muddy sections with deep tire ruts around greens making it impossible to play competitively. It will be a month or more before the course is in decent shape.

Late in the season, course conditions show
I've played here about ten times this year and each time the conditions worsen. Pro shop is cool, starter is really hit or miss (depends on who's there). Bathrooms on the course are usually nasty.

Slow play
Might want to change tee times and spread out time between to improve play time. Too much waiting for group in front. They also were waiting so it wasn’t that they played slow.

Great until the locals…..
Really fun round with some friends. Unfortunately on the last few holes, we got heckled by some shirtless, barefoot golfers While we were swinging.

Not my favorite course
Too many long par fours not reachable in two, especially with the wind; rough was a killer; greens did not hold; too hilly of a course
