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.

Disappointing

I played this course in July of 2021 while on vacation in Oahu. Course was totally burned out dry from lack of rain. Play was slow. I was able to play through two groups then got jammed up behind a foursome that played very slow to the end.

Tee boxes and greens were not in good shape. Clubhouse was awful, like a cheap municipal course. Not worth playing here.

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!!
