Ok course

The course is in fair to average condition. The young man who worked in the pro shop was one of the friendliest staff persons I’ve met.

Loved the layout, we played off the white tees which makes the course quite easy.
Not too impressed with the fairways which really needed to be mown, however the spectacular views made up for that.
Would definitely play the course again

Dont play here, especially if your not from Hawai'i

160 bucks to play the worst course ive ever played. Greens were unkept, fairways were non-existant, cups hadnt been changed in way too long, overall very upset. This could be a bang for your buck muni, but only if it cost less than 20 dollars. Absolutely terrible.

Not good

When we arrived it looked like it was closed. The clubhouse/pro shop/restroom was outdated, dark and dirty. Staffed seemed not happy to be there. They did let us get on 45 minutes early. However it took 2.5 hours to play 10. We had to skip 2 holes as there was a group of y in front of us. Needles to say facility management was poor. Sorry but not worth the $100 USD we paid to play.

Good course

Fairway condition is good in spite of heavy rain. Green is too soft and slow.

Equivalent to taking your money and lighting it on fire.

Ocean views? Forget about it…you will see it from a distance. Might as well pull out your binoculars while you at it. These people charged me 70
Dollars for some garbage callaway clubs. Do your self a favor, save your money or play somewhere else. Course is wide and easy to play though. I just can’t believe I was charged 70 dollars for rental clubs. Lol. 70 dollars!!! I wouldn’t play this course even if it’s on a hot deal again. Only “championship” about this course is that it has the word championship.

Great layout

Was once a great course
It has fallen into a course that needs a lot of attention
Looks old and run down
Needs a serious amount of time and money to bring it up to par

Don't waste your money

As you can read the staff at this course is very good and friendly but that's where it ends.

Starting with the driving range they don't even provide tees for the mats and want you to buy one!

One the course you'll find bare fairways and rough and greens that putt like shag carpet. Long putts almost require a shoulder turn to reach the hole. The greens have a good coverage of Bermuda grass but need to be cut lower for a smoother roll..

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!
