Poor course condition

The course was very soggy, the small rough was very rough and the fairways were like the rough. Tough to find the balls even if hit on the fairway. The greens were full of divets, the air compressor was not working so unable to blow off excess grass off shoes and golf bag. Overall very disappointing visit and would be looking elsewhere for another game.
