Needs some love

All Sand traps were in poor shape, course bathrooms were unacceptable, signage is lacking and course is in good shape. Its a total diamond in the rough.

Fair

Disappointed with the overall course conditions. Dry fairways with rocks in the bunkers. Driving range is pretty bad with no grass and mostly dirt. I think Arnold wouldn't be to happy.

Pro shop person rude

Course was ok. Pace of play pretty good. Gentleman that checked us in very rude. Pretty much an a hole. Beverage cart lady was rude and kept driving on fairway to serve group in front of us. Starter was awesome. The gentleman that got our clubs loaded and brought the casr up was awesome. Probably will not be back.

Hard to fine 150 markers

The greens were very good!

Robert Sanderson

The only difficulty our foursome encountered was the Marshall who mistakenly thought we were playing too slow and had fallen behind a group ahead of us. He verbally warned us on the fourth hole and then “bird dogged” us for the 4th through 8th hole. We finally had enough and one of our members called him out for basically stalking us. He was told that there was never a group ahead of us and the nearest group was always two holes ahead of us and was no factor in our playing time. We told him that he was negatively affecting our game and that we paid a lot of money to come out and enjoy the game, not to be hounded by him. He apologized and left us alone after that admonishment.
