Relaxing and FUN
Great par 3 course. Greens have really improved over the last 3 months. Great course to get in 9 holes before work.

I'll give it another chance
My first impression wasn't a great one. We spent the first seven holes as a three-some behind a five-some, but then they walked off the course, probably to get drinks and the club's famous BBQ (which I haven't tried yet).
The condition of the course was a pleasant surprise. I had been warned the greens were in bad shape, but they have improved immensely from winter to summer. No complaints about their speed or roll.
The layout is tight where stray shots from beginners tend to cause some havoc. There are a couple compelling holes. I'll give Sunken Gardens another chance, but for what they charge, I'm not sure the course will make it into my playing rotation. Maybe I'll change my mind if I bring driver, which I didn't do. There are some risk-reward short par 4s that might elevate the excitement factor.
