Slow pace

In front of us was 6 friends that was supposed to be a group of 2 and 4 however all 6 tee off at the same time. Most of the time they played as 6. For my group the rounds was 6 hours. Disappointing that the starter and marshall did not inforce the course rules.

What happened…

It looks like this ‘resort style’ course was neatly built into the valley terrain and then something happened…. Resort abandoned the course? Switched to a good focused menu? Tried to go upscale and failed as the course conditions and amenities are below par (and I don’t mean that in a good way). If I paid half the price, I would still not be motivated to come back.

Poor Conditioning

Great design, great staff. It’s a shame the rough is all dandelions and unevenly cut, and several greens had some severe damage and were obviously not taken care of properly. There’s a halfway house in a great location where you go by it at least three times during the round, but it was closed during May long weekend and we were starving. This course used to be great and it’s a shame to see it go downhill. It is not at all worth the big money they are asking when there are many better options in the area that have much better maintenance.

Early season

Course had nice layout. Poor conditions but ultimately it was early season. Would be interested playing mid summer. Price most likely to high for what you get.

Slowest Pace of Play Ever !!!!

Took 6 hours to play this course. Not a marshal to be seen. If it wasn't such a nice day I am sure we would have packed it in after 9. This is a new record in my life time for slow play.
