SoSo

The layout of the course is very good but not very well maintained. There were a few interesting challenges on the course. The group in front of us was very slow and we never saw the “marshal’ until we were on the 17th hole. We should have been able to play this course in about

3 1/2 hours but it took about 5. Waaaay too long.

Cool Feature

Fun course with a lot of water traps. Pace of play is pretty quick. Navigation between some holes can be confusing. If you book on GolfNow, know that they have leagues starting at 3pm, so you have to be at home 10 by then.

Overall good course

Course was overall in good shape. A couple greens had some rough spots, but majority was just fine. Has a unique and challenging design on some holes mixed with decent forgiving ones. Pace of play was slow due to a large group. I’d recommend and lay it again for sure

5.5 hour round

Course is fine. Had a foursome holding up at least 5 groups from hole 5 on. Something should have been done by ranger. Nothing was done. I will give this course one more try but that was ridiculous.
