2nd Terrible experience

Waited on every tee box and watched a group of 4 Asian ladies who were not on the tee sheet and already played 18 that morning, play in front of me the entire time. I asked to play thru and they pretended to not understand and drove off twice. The 9th hole, another gentleman joined me and we still waited for the ladies. He accidentally hit one close to them after they had already walked off the green and were sitting in there carts and they started yelling at us even tho we were yelling fore. Then a maintenance worker started cussing at me in Spanish for telling the ladies we yelled “Fore!” This is a place for people who don’t know anything about golf and clearly don’t care about upholding golf values. Please don’t spend money here. It’s wasted on useless people like the maintenance worker thinking he could cuss in Spanish or the employees who let 4 women who weren’t even on the tee sheet tee off in front of other paying customers. Don’t play there.

What Happen Here?

I can’t comprehend the neglect that has gone into this course. Long gone are the glory days when the SCGA owned and managed this great layout. Today the course is a shabby shell of what is used to be. Played it recently to see if it was possible to host a tournament here. Every aspect of this once great course has been let go. Despite that, I still inquired about holding a tournament there. The person in the shop told me they didn’t know who was in charge of booking tournaments and to try the website. I did and left multiple messages and emails for the person listed in charge with no response. I tried calling again and leaving another message, but received no call back. A great layout that has been abused and mismanaged to the point i have no desire to ever return.

New white sand and shaggy

Mid day 3 hour round for our twosome. The course was greener than it's been and certainly more than others. Grass was hide your ball long in the rough and greens were a lil fuzzy, but true and not slow. Never had a bad lie in fairway.. New fluffy white sand has begun to show up in some of the greenside bunkers, an obvious joy compared to the original hard packed brown in the others.

They happened to close the grill/beer dispenser before 4pm on a Monday., I do hate that!

A Great Course Condition

The greens are as good as I have seen in a long time. Truly excellent.

The fairways are much better and there are many areas where the grass is much better.

Nice course

I had to play this as I just played at a Robert Trent Jones II course in Tulum Mx. Not quite the same as dad’s designed course but the Mx course was $150. We definitely liked the layout and the greens were in great shape as they were recently punched about a week prior. We’ll play again soon.

Still Playable

This course is a shell of its former self that’s why I gave it mixed reviews. Still a good layout if you are looking for a course to play in a pinch. Just might have to improve your lay every now and then so you are not hitting off of “dirt”.
