No clean lies

This course is not expensive, and as they say, you get what you pay for. Way too many fairways where you are hitting off sand and the lack of grass. Greens are decent. Not great overall.

Not bad. Not great

About what you would expect for the price. Average course conditions. Greens actually better than expected. Fairways kinda thin. If u play preferred lies, it's all good. Could be excellent if in better overall shape.

Course of Doglegs

If you like to bomb the driver, not course for you. From white tees, most par 4s are short doglegs that require target golf. Lots of water to worry too especially if you don't have course knowledge. Overall, pretty good condition with very fast greens. Iguanas roam the course too.

Love this course!

Played in the late afternoon (3pm). Place was very crowded as expected. Greens are in decent shape. Rest of the course was more than acceptable. Great value on golf now.
