Slow playing

Tee offs booked to close together especially with so many groups In front of you, nobody making sure the the pace was kept going so a lot of waiting around for each hole. And the carts are way over priced.

Short course

I enjoyed playing the course even though there is no par 5’s. Many ball marks on the greens were not repaired correctly. Some tee-off’s need attention.

Greens made the round

I was able to hit many greens in regulation but the features on the greens made putting challenging.

Beware

Course is part of hotel property. The hotel does "stay and play" packages. So when we arrived for our 8:48 tee time there were 2 foursomes ready to tee off and the course let them go ahead of us because they were hotel guest. I guess they let these people tee off whenever they want regardless of pre-booked tee times. We ended up playing the 3rd 8 hole course instead as we did not want to wait. It is not my place to tell someone how to run their business but this is wrong.
