I Recommend This Course
So much waiting
It’s such a shame that I and others seem to have to grapple with deciding to play one of the nicest courses in the area while knowing we’ll have to surrender more than 5 hours of our day. This course is in desperate need of a ranger. I hope they get one because I’d love to play this course again, but it seems woefully understaffed, leaving the few that are on the clock overwhelmed and overburdened. I recommend everyone try it at least once, but be warned that a 4 hour round is a pipe dream here

Needs watering
Greens very dry and not holding approach shots as were the fairways. Would be a nice course if they just watered it appropriately.

fantastic course
Well maintained greens and tee boxes, lots of trees but none that crowd the fairways much. Definitely a fun round of golf.
