Pretty good except for one thing.

Course is in good shape and the pace was great. My only complaint is that the holes on the greens are cut with a very dull hole cutter so the edges are all rough and uneven. The holes are at least 10% smaller as a result. Only lip outs and no lip ins. Fix this for another star

Thx

A Once Proud Course

You would think that with all the recent rains over the last three months that this course would be in better shape. I was surprised to find out it was not. Tee boxes were in bad shape. Fairways were not much better. The rough on the back 9 would have made the US Open proud. It was beyond think where if you watched you ball go in it at the exact spot, it was difficult to find. You would only find your ball if you happened to step on it. The only good thing that the greens were in good shape and for a Friday, played in just over 4 hours. I really wonder what is going on with the maintenance of this course.

Staff was amazing!

Samantha at the course helped me get my putter re gripped and couldn’t have been more knowledgeable and friendly. Course was in need of mainlands but a blast for the money. T

Overall nice course, some parts of the rough right off the fairway were way to overgrown so it's easy to lose your ball. I thought the back nine was more challenging than the first.
