The greens have a lot of ball marks. Fairways are decent. Cart paths are in bad shape. Too many loose branches under trees. For the money, it's fair.

The Pace

Course rangers should worry more about pace of play ..we had a 4some or 2t-wosome that joined together slowed up 4 or more groups behind them...The ranger should be monitor that oppose to signing for a cart .

But course was in great shape ..Cart paths are a death trap though ..
