Great course

The course is in excellent shape. The pro, Dan, was very nice and checked on us at the end of round to make sure we enjoyed it. Great value for the money. The course is difficult but very enjoyable with beautiful scenery.

Pace of play was terrible due to a group of 12 playing in a scramble and not letting anyone play through

In peak summer condition. Greens are fast, the rough is lush and full and the layout is great.

Speidel - Palmer

Overall course was in good shape minus fairway on #2 which needs some TLC. Staff wasn’t the friendliest. Way too busy in course. Waited on tee box on 15 holes. On course concessions closed early minus the cart girl. Having played here before I expect more from speidel. Thank goodness I got a heck of a deal.

Crispin

One of my favorites to play. Was a little busy on this day, but not miserable. The greens need a little work to run the same on each one.

HILLY

Reading the various reviews, I saw none that told you how hilly this course is. Wow. Mountainous might be the better word. They definitely need gas carts for this course. And the carts were quite worn out. Rightfully so. My main problem with the course was that it just was very unfair. You would hit a beautiful drive into the middle of the fairway and watch hopelessly as it rolled across the fairway and into the rough. The slope of the fairways either right or left was extreme. The overall condition of the course was good but there were some fungus issues on a few fairways. But the greens were really nice and putted true. And very quick which I liked. It rained on us during a forecast for a sunny day. That did not help. (Blaming the weatherman for that lousy forecast.) The staff is fantastic. Green fees too high.
