Enjoyable round of golf

The course is good for all skill sets, from weekend golfers to regulars. The back tees made the course more challenging and more fun. Fairways are not overly generous which means you can’t make too many miscues or else!

Par 3s were varied and seemed to all have water or some other obstacle to mess with your head.

Glad I played this course again and look forward to the next one.

A fabulous day of golf

Everything went perfectly. All staff members were highly professional and helpful. No delays on the course, thankfully. A very interesting course!

Long long day.

First time playing the course. It was interesting since the parking lot is shared with a Hilton hotel. The course was in good shape. However, the layout is a bit cramped and the fairways and even the greens was within shot distance from other tee boxes. Probably the only reason that will keep me from returning is the horrible pace of play. I happened to play at a peak time, and I never once saw a ranger. Also, they did not have a starter at the 1st tee so people were teeing off whenever they wanted. At the 12th tee there were 3 groups waiting. The group in front of me got frustrated and started skipping holes which made the pace of play even worse.

Wonderful Round, Fast Greens!

I was impressed by the routing and the conditioning of the course with the exception of the bunkers. The bunkers were not ready for play and I’m not quite sure why... The greens were rolling really fast, but it was a fun challenge. Nice resort golf course.

Enjoyed my first round under quarantine

A really nice first time out this year (Carrying my bag and all). Course was in good shape, with a fair amount of up and down. Not all that difficult, but then I was with my girlfriend and we didn’t keep score.

Limit to twosomes every 15 minutes makes it quite nice actually.

Will be even nicer when the trees have their full leaves.

Great times and easy-going environment.

6 par 3's for a par 70 shorten the course a little so the scorecard can be deceiving. Playing the back tees make it extra challenging and long especially the par 5s. Great course to play and an amazing staff that treat it like a true resort.

Only downsides are the bunkers, not much sand. Otherwise a great experience and would continue to play.
