Construction challenges
Course was a bit dry and brown but fun to play. I have played it before when it was much nicer. Construction on back lake may be the cause. We were hit into twice by impatient players but we were not the hold up. Assumed they were snowbirds. Would definitely play it again.

Tee Time was 1:00 took 5 1/2 hours to play. Greens had been top dressed two weeks ago. They were like concrete. Could not get a ball to stop on the green. Putting was a joke. Course conditions were not very good. Will not go back as long as this many people are here playing that course. No way a round of golf should take this long to play.

Slow pace
There were too many people playing. They were not spaced far enough apart. We had people hitting up on us. It took 5 1/2 hours to play 18 holes. Terrible.
