Otter

Only complaint was the poor setting of the distance computer shutting down the cart without warning and along way from designated areas. Frustrating when you are unaware it will shut down so quickly in certain areas and need to back up at 1 mph for 100 feet

Great Muni Course

Otter is a fun course to play. Links style look with some ponds. Pace this round was great, 3:36 hrs/minutes

Holes are challenging yet not unfair when played from the proper tees.

Otter Creek

It was the first time playing Otter Creek this year. The course was one of the best I played, which includes several Country Clubs. Highly recommend.

One thing I would change is the bag drop off needs to be golf cart accessible. At my age the golf bag is hard to carry.
