Terrible
To start, staffs were terrible. Not friendly at all...I have encountered 4 staffs and they were all terrible.
The Greens were not too bad but the overall course condition was pretty bad.

Good times
Course was in pretty good shape considering we are in a severe drought. On the course, I felt pace of play seemed slow as our group waited on every, single tee box; however, we completed the round in 4.25 hours. Not too bad for a Monday.
Good value.
No beverage cart.

This place is sooooo bad
There are too many reasons to not go here. Bad conditions, horrible pace, grounds crew everywhere, puddles and mud everywhere, overpriced, fairway is rough, the rough is rougher, and that’s IF you find a patch of grass in this dust bowl. The layout is boring, and add a 6 hour round to that boredom… no thanks.

Good condition
Course is in very good shape. Greens looked rough & slow, but rolled very smooth & fairly quick. Although we did play very early, there was way too much water on the course….I would assume because of the heat later in the day. Made the ball marks on the greens almost unfixable.
