Fairway conditions need help
Only real complaint was the condition of the fairways. Seemed like almost all of the fairways had a lot of bare patches where the plant root system & dirt was visable with no plant growth showing. Bunkers weren't sand so much as 1/4 minus gravel.

Pea gravel bunkers
I’ve never seen gravel as a bunker material. They say it’s because of the high winds, the sand would blow out. I’ve played many courses that are subject to high winds and never seem gravel.
If you play there bring and old sand wedge or you will ruin your club. Other then that, it’s a good track to play, but play early to avoid slow play.
