Course was in good shape, tees boxes and greens were good .
Surprise!
We were pleasantly surprised by the condition of the course. The fairways were lush and the greens rolled smooth and true. It was in the best condition I have seen it in the three years I have played here.
Not Bad
Overall course was in good shape! Improved tremendously from last November. Still a bit pricey for the overall quality, but close!
The course is getting better all the time. Greens are in the best shape we have seen them.
Expectations Met
Early morning tee time so pace of play was up to us. Under 4 hrs. Worth the rack rate. The greens were excellent good speed and in great shape. I’d play this course again.
Course in very nice shape , haven’t play here for 3-4 years it’s in way better shape than it used to be . Really enjoyed it we will definitely be back. Did the play and dine deal. Supper was really good as well .
Francisco Grande
We try to play this course often. Yesterday the pace of play was extremely slow. There did not seem to be a course Marshall or ranger. One possible reason is the 8 minute tee times. Group ahead of ours was very slow. We waited on every tee box but no 1.
Notwithstanding, the course is good value for the money
Good shape
The course is in the best shape I have seen it in four years. Started at 1400 and could not finish.

Gem in the Desert
This is the second time I played this course. Not overly difficult but fun and in exceptional shape. We were paired with a couple of fun guys from Alberta and we had a great round. I plan to be back with some friends in early April. If they continue to pay attention to the course, this will be a real gem.

Nothing memorable about this course. Flat, boring and not worth it.
Friendly staff
Staff was very friendly and course is in great shape
