Nice track

Course is overcoming heavy rains last week. Most bunkers were raked, but some still had water. No rakes or drinking water on course, but beverage cart was excellent. Clubhouse laying new tile in grill and pro shop. Staff was super friendly, including cart staff and rangers. Good course to play.

Another great experience

Beautiful weather and course was in great condition. Greens continue to be quite firm and quick with a lot of undulation on them. Be cautious on your approaches! Group in front was glacially slow but the Marshall did a nice job and we finally played through which we appreciated. While a bit slow the course, cart and greens staff and beautiful weather kept it pleasant. We will be playing again soon! Love the golf now value too. Saved $30/per person!

Too windy to really review.

If I could have played a different day I would have because the wind was impossible but it was my last day of vacation so I gave it a shot. I was matched with another single so I wasn’t the only crazy one out there that day. Never caught up with the group ahead and the foursome behind us never caught up to us so I’d say pace was a 5. Course was, as expected, in great shape and the greens were reading true for me. Even with the wind I did have a good time.
