Course and Staff were fantastic

Loved the course. I played off the wrong tees. Great information on the back of the scorecard that would have helped. The only negative to my round was the wait at the turn. I had to wait 20 minutes before I was allowed to start my back 9. Not ideal as going out early in order to complete 18 in as little time as possible.Ranger was very helpful and understanding.

Everything good. Greens were slow, but had good grass as did fairways. A couple of tee boxes on Macay nine iffy, but if that’s my only complaint it’s hardly worth mentioning. Nice guys at check in.

Thought greens were bumpy and group in front was very slow which was made worse due to lack of a Ranger. Great course I would definitely recommend

Beautiful but challenging

Gorgeous course and layout. A must play for the passionate golfer. Greens had multiple levels that can be challenging but the pin placements were fair.
