Dealing with a drought

The fairways were burnt, but that to be expected considering its been a month and a half since we have had any significant rainfall. the greens and tee boxes were in good shape. There was some watering of the fairways but it was just to keep the grass alive.

Another Great Day

Got to love fall, weather is excellent, the course is not quite as crowded so pace of play is great and the condition of the fairways and greens are spot-on.

Had some wicked pin placements so it was hard to keep the put count down.

Decent price for a decent course

The price I paid was incredible. The course was average. Like most courses the sand bunks needed a bit of work, I think maintaining sand traps must be hard for all but the best courses. The layout was good, but while the grass was green, it was not thick and lush as I would have thought in a place with as much moisture that they get. Staff were friendly.

Great Day

Checked in quickly and got out a few minutes early. Course is immaculate condition. They continue to make improvements, this year clearing out some of the underbrush along the fairways.

Play here you will enjoy your game. As good as many courses much more expensive.

Greens

The course is well designed, challenging and in good condition. The real fun begins on the greens. Fast and contoured!! Be careful if you’re above the hole.
