Fine but could be outstanding
Some work on upkeep and this could be an outstanding experience. Gopher holes, weeds and bird droning everywhere are detractors.

Wow. Just…wow.
They put zero money into this course. Holes EVERYWHERE! Hard not to turn an ankle just walking down the fairway. Or lose a ball in them. Some greens had patches of dirt. Speaking of dirt, that’s what the whole practice range is. Pace of play? If playing on a weekend get a Saturday time so you can finish Sunday. After almost 3 hours we completed the front nine.
