Great course.

Big Fun. Challenging and mostly fair (some tough greens and pin placements), great layout, and great staff. Conditions have improved tremendously this year, I’m sure next year will be even better. Only gripe is the road being so close to holes 6 and 7, have been honked at during my backswing multiple times 🤧

Great layout

Greens very nice, fairways terrible mix of dirt and grass, layout very nice. Pace of play little slow. Not worth $70.

Challenging course

I had a really great time. Can't wait to play it again. No real complaints just wished the cart paths could have been nicer. And the elevations are to die for, amazing elevations. Try it and you will like it.
