Course was ok

The grounds crew needs to work on the fairways - need to seed the grass as the fairways were too spotty

Nicer Than Before

Used to golf this course years ago. This was the best condition I have seen it in. Slow greens but overall great course, especially at price point. Going to return soon!

Challenging course, great layout

I enjoyed the variation between the front nine and the back nine, with the back nine being more fun due to the ski hills. The courses are challenging yet playable. My only critique is that the fairway grass was a little longer than it should be
