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.

All good except there are two hole number 5's (par 3). No signage or directive from staff as to which was in play.

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

Absolutely Horrible
I have played this course many times before without issues. This round had horrible pace of play and was in horrible condition. Fresh lawn clippings on fairway, greens, and roughs. We had 2 groups ahead of us sitting at the tee boxes and fairways never ready to take their shots playing an odd scramble type game and was holding everyone behind them up. The groups in front of them were 3 holes ahead and by the time we got to hole #8 there were 4 groups waiting to tee off fire the hole. Informed the ranger and clubhouse of the issue with slow play and was told they paid their money like everyone else. No help at all with our justified complaint. We will never return to this course again.
