Better than last year but still needs more grounds maintenance
Course was very dried out. Needs more watering. Greens in good shape. Staff extremely friendly and accommodating

Watch your slice!
The Rookery had a good deal of water hazards which will make you want to watch your slice! You have to play smart and ensure you hit your targets. The grass lining all the water hazards are pretty low, so don’t count on rough to save the balls that take a odd bounce or are rolling too! If you see a hazard, you may want to lay up! Fun layout that’ll keep u on your toes.
Watch out on the first hole, the driving range balls bleed into it a bit-could use a net to catch those there.
