Enjoyable
Second visit in three days. I enjoyed the course, although the pace of okay was much (really too much) slower than the previous visit. The course itself is well presented, very playable, but still has enough challenge. Hope to be back soon.

Best muni around
Another great round at the muni. Pace was great, conditions were good (some disease or vandalism on a couple greens and fairways) but never affected my play. Definitely play again.
