Smooth & faster greens

Need to trim the tee boxes but the grass on course is coming in well. Played shortly after sunrise so the sand-knats were RUTHLESS - bring spray! Course is overall really good though - challenging holes and fast greens. I'll be back!

Great day

We had an outstanding day of golf. Easy, steady pace of play, perfect weather and the course moving towards greener springlike conditions. Greens were very good, fairways started to green up, rough is still winter brown, so no issues other than the sand traps are in need of some significant work.

With the exception of the sand traps which are in terrible condition, the course is a good bang for the buck.

Layout good, conditions average.

I have enjoyed the layout for years. A very good combination of length and difficulty. This time of year the grass not growing, wind and rain depleting the ground, and sand traps pretty unplayable, the course is only OK.

Pleasant golf

Played mid-morning and with 2 foursomes and we had the course to ourselves. Layout is nice, conditions are good for late January, and the weather was benign. The greens were is very good shape, the fairways were starting to green up, but there are areas that need improvement, but at the price it’s difficult to complain.
