Way too slow

Play here often, and frankly since the Pro change it is somewhat less than it was….4 hr rounds are now 5+…hit, wait, repeat. This round I walked off after 11 hole-3.5hrs of hit and wait-group 3 in front of us had 2 open holes in front of them, zero rangers on the course, hopefully they correct it in the spring…yet the see the “new pro” actually at the course supervising or visible.

Nice course and well maintained

Staff was friendly and the course was in great shape. Workers were working on the leaves and keeping the course clean and free of leaves. I will be back for sure.

West course in excellent condition. Pace of play was a little slow and no rangers were around to move play along. Fairways were spectacular and greens in good shape but a little slow.

Protests and punched greens

There was multiple events that day.

One was a poetry competition on a loud speaker "no justice? No peace!" Was chanted right next to several holes.

Another had closed the practice putting green.

Was notified thirty seconds before teeing off that the greens had been punched.

The aeration was done poorly, causing many strange bounces, and poor conditions.
