Good round

New owners are improving the course though a couple greens are still struggling and several storm related fallen trees are still ball catchers. Still Noticeably better now than a year ago.

Much Improved

The management is doing a great job in taking this course to another level. The fairways are green now and almost plush! They have worked in the greens also. They are coming along nicely! These improvements are going to save me gas money! Will play more rounds here now than before. Check them out if you have not already!
