Great layout and amenities. Played with 3 gentlemen, we all played well. Started off behind a rather slow 4 some. Got past them on the turn and played the back in 1hour 30 minutes. Great course will play it again and again.

Nice course

Nice course. Greens were a bit hard and dry. Grass long on tee boxes. Bunker sand a bit gritty. Otherwise perfect

Awesome round

This course makes you use your course management skills to the hilt.

Play it right and you can make birdies and keep doubles off your card or ignore it and you could rack up triple or more.

Enjoy the challenge as much as I do every time I play Ambiente or Padre,
