Nice course

The course was in very good condition for summer. Lots of water hazards and well placed sand traps. The greens were surprisingly fast and well maintained. I’ll definitely will be back.

Enjoyable day

Our round was fast due to a threatening rain but the course played well. Some fairways were a little burned out from lack of rain but are beginning to recover. The greens are back in shape .

It was an enjoyable day.

Very slow play on front 9

A threesome hitting as many balls as needed to get a ball in play, a twosome was hitting and playing 2 balls, no ranger to tell them differently.

Another nice round

I like the layout. Conditions are well maintained. Tee boxes are a little rough in places, but teeing up is not an issue. Fairways are always good. Greens have average difficulty, but play nicely.

Right now they have done airation to tee boxes and greens, but still very playable.
