A new course!

What a fantastic new course! Good design, a few very tricky approaches. Condition unbelievable for a new track! Two downsides, no club house and lots of building going on. Great value for money.

Great track

Playing the tips on this course is a real challenge especially if there's wind... No trees to shelf the wind at all. This course almost plays like a links course. Position golf if more important than length. You can manage this course if you put the ball in the fairway. Being in the fairway on this course is paramount. Greens roll great. Overall a great course right in my own neighborhood.

Nice track

With all the construction it would have been nice to have more water stations.

Ave National

A drive worth the visit. The course layout is fairly, the greens roll true, and we're a little fast when I played 10-11 stimp.

Greens are not in the best shape

The greens have a lot of patch work for the price you pay. There are much better options out there to play at this price.

Superior Conditions

I played here yesterday for the second time. The course conditions are superb. I love the fast greens. I never had a bad lie in the fairway. I am a senior player. The regular men's tees had the course at around 6,200 yds, and the next set of tees had the course at around 5,100 yds. I'd like to see a set of tees somewhere in the middle of those distances. Staff is very friendly and pace of play was great. I look forward to playing here again.
