Beautiful course
Course itself was in great condition. Fairly open fairways, but enough hazards to keep it challenging. Personally I only had two issues.
1. The kid working the club house desk wasn't very polite, told me the rest of my foursome hadn't checked in, even though they were on the 1st tee, and I had to get his attention from the back office because he was so involved on his phone, he didn't even notice I walked in.
2. Price. It is a beautiful course, however, it's not a $90 (nor.al rate) a round course. I've played courses just as nice for half the price. Only reason I went was the twighlight rate was reasonable at $55 a round.
