Fantastic greens

Course was in good shape for all the rain that the area had the past week and the night before, which prompted walking only. They (Chris) offered a free push cart but I had my own. Course wasn’t that wet and the greens and areas around the greens were in fantastic shape. I was out there all by myself. Thought it would be a bad walk (because the course was wet) but it was an easy walk...got around in an easy 3:15. Definitely one of my faves!

Great conditions for Early March

Always a fun and forgiving course to play. Very impressed with the conditions early in the season - greens rolling faster than expected. A few wet areas like on #7 fairway but that's to be expected. Parking lot was full with only one man on staff. That man earned his pay that day. Always friendly service, will return soon!

sloooooooooow

Very nice layout, Good condition. Interesting holes design. BUT slow play ruins experience. Took 3.5 hours for 9 holes. Usually can play 18 in 2 hours, when players let me pass...

Course conditions

Water was everywhere. We’ve had nothing but rain, might have been a good idea to close the course this afternoon. It was next to impossible to keep the carts out of the water. Fairways flooded , sand traps with water sitting several inches deep. I feel certain the maintenance crew is doing everything they can, but it’s fighting a loosing battle.

Not able to play

Arrived a 6:45 for our 6:56 tee time and were told there was an outing with a 7:30 shotgun start we could join if we wanted. Did not honor our tee time. Said the golf now tee times did not matter. Will not be returning.
