Great for beginners

Took up golf after 10 years and this is a great course for just that. Nothing is above a par 3 and each hole has a beautiful layout with sand & water

Target golf

The course is challenging. It gives you a chance to practice your short game. It's was in pretty good shape and we enjoyed our round very much.

Keep up the good work on the course and we will be back!
