Tee boxes need work
Course was great except for the tee boxes. Price seems a bit high to be teeing off from dirt on a ton of holes. Besides that everything else was great

Another round at St Mark
This is a reliable executive course. It has four Par 4s and lots of terrain and no water after the first half mile.
It's a fun course - 2:45 to play 18

(Almost) Everything is Great about this Course
We return here weekly because it is a great layout and in great shape…except for the hard pan bunkers. They need to put new sand in them, however other than that it is the premiere short course in the county.
