Course is looking great

I’ve been playing here off and on since 2007. I have to say the course is in great shape. You can tell that they are putting in great work. It has definitely improved tremendously over the last few months. Would like to see a Marshall on the course to speed up play. That is the only drawback. Greens are definitely the fastest I have seen.

Nice course

I played early in the am and the course overall was in great shape. The greens were by far the shining star running about a 10-11. Really smooth and slick if above the hole. The rest of the course was good with a few bare spots in the fairways, bunkers had some thin areas but for the most part, very playable. Course marshall was very accomodating and got me out a few groups early. Get there a little early as they have a nice practice area.

Well laid out established course

This course brought a challenge to mist holes. A lot of elevated greens, especially the par 3s made both short and long approach shots difficult. My complaint was the pace of play due to the number of juniors practising on the course. We were pared with a couple of them and because it was a practise round for them they chipped and putted several times around each green making it impossible for me to focus on my game. The course should make sure the hrs are paired with each other not golfers out for a game.
