excellent holiday golf course

We were a 2-ball and the first 6 holes was fast but then we caught up with a "5" ball!! Marshall tried to move us around to Valley course which helped but would have preferred to play a continous 18 hole course. Nonetheless everything about the staff and course conditions were normal Marriott high standard.

Great layout, good greens but fairways bumpy

Enjoyable course with good layout. Greens were surprisingly fast and true. Fairways were disappointing -- like a wash-board but still ok to play of. Good value.
