The Wheel Red
Bad stuff first...my game, and there were no box markings.
Good stuff...very friendly staff, fairways and greens were in great shape, and the course can be forgiving...if you don't slice and hook like me.

Great course. Played Red. 7 out of 9 holes are driver with open fields. Trees on the sides. Great friendly staff and guests. Had a frost delay and everyone was friendly and patient. Overall, great time. Will book again on black.

Great Afternoon Round
Awesome weather. Got paired up with an absolutely awesome dude. So much of the course was in great shape. Good amount of tee boxes could use work. But my goodness some of those holes in the back 9. The fairways and greens are just pristine.

Enjoyed Playing
Loved the course. Enjoyed the day. The real issue is that the fairways were uncut such that there was very little runout. Also greens and tees needed cutting.
