Loved every second of it.
By far my favorite course to play in the desert. Everything from A to z was perfect. Great staff, pace, and layout. Was challenging but not draining. Starter was truly a gem.

Poor pin positions
Pins were set up on severe slopes. If your 20' foot putt didn't go in, it would come back to your feet. Affected everyone in our foursome.

Great course!
My arrival and the friendly services to the beautifully manicured greens were something out of a dream. The course layout was excellent for my play. I will recommend it to others and will be back soon.

Starter tries to rush players
Very good course. Greens Not Great, but just ok.
The starter tries to rush players to the first tee, 40 minutes early.
The starter, brings a 4th player to our 3some on the 2nd tee box, instead of pairing him up with the 2some behind us.
The course is fun to play, some of the par 5's are reachable.
Tree lined fairways, with water coming into play on quite a few holes, as well as many bunkers.
