Poor green design

The greens need to be some combination of bigger, less undulating, and/or lower and more level to the surrounding fringe and fairway. Too many good shots into the green are not properly rewarded. The course also has some drainage issues that make it too frequently wet, especially in the cooler season.

Love playing here

I love the layout and challenge of this course. My latest outing started great but ran into a group on the back 9 that seemed to have come out of nowhere. That’s ok though, with the group behind me being 2 holes back I just gave the group ahead of me some time and finished out my round without hitting up onto anyone and no one on my heals.

Frustrating

3 of us played. No Starter or Ranger. Pace of play was horrible. Had groups of 5 & 6 with no golf etiquette. Group of 6 were hitting up on our group. VERY FRUSTRATING & LIKELY WILL NOT GO BACK!
