Really friendly folks here.

Fair course in good condition. They say it plays longer than listed - they are right. Plenty of challenge but good landing areas. Made a little difficult by several elevated greens.

Definitely coming back.

Slow play

Got behind the IMG golf teams. I was told they would be gone after 9 but wasn’t the case. Had lengthy waits on virtually every hole on the back due to on course

Instructions. Very frustrating.

Overall great experience

Had a wonderful time. Played with a friend who had a lung replaced five years ago and needed a little extra time to play. Staff put his cart into disability mode which was great, but there was nothing to alert players out on the course that he was a little slower due to his disability. Would be nice if the administration would use cart flags to help other players realize that there was a reason for being a little slow and not just because we didn't care to keep pace. Other than that suggestion, everything was wonderful!
