Very disappointed. Don’t think I would play this course again.
I have played this course many times and usually really enjoy it. Last time I played it the course conditions were absolutely horrible. I understand they have to conserve water these days but with prices these days they should at least water tee decks, fairway’s,and greens.

Where’s the water?
This is the driest course in Durham at the moment. Fairways are like hitting of cement. Dry and yellow. Haven’t seen the sprinkler system on in a while

Not quite the course I remember.
Course is still decent but a bit of a disappointment. I told my 15 year old son who is becoming quite the avid golfer how nice the course was. Took him there to experience the fast sloping greens. Turns out they had just sanded them and greens were terrible. Back nine is still beautiful. Just a bit disappointed in the experience.

Fun and challenging course with a great layout
Always in great condition with fast greens and a halfway house that you can hit up multiple times while playing 18.
