Well kept, groomed , however,

Lack of yardage markers, only 2 stones per hole, wastes time looking,

No rangers or beverage carts,

Rough is very difficult and very time consuming looking for balls, even near the fairway.

3 nine hole courses that rotate for 18 holes. Personely dont like valley course but I always end up there I think the price is too high at 52$ due to a lack of features , but would recomend it if thats not an issue.

Pace of Play

I will say this, I did not finish my round and left because of pace of Play. Consistently four groups on a hole, twosomes, threesomes and a foursome. There never is a marshall or anyone out there who can move groups along. With kids out of school for the summer the course is booked full. Kids are looking for their balls out of bounds without time restraints or consideration of other groups on the course.
