For old guys like me this is a fun course. I shot 65 and got 4 birdies--the most ever for me!

The course is in good shape. I shot my best round ever...64. 11 pars and 2 birdies. I like that an old guy like me can get on the greens in regulation.

We were surprised to see a group of 8 playing in front of us. The ranger told us there were groups of 6 and 7 in front of them. Needless to say we were waiting a lot. Who made the decision to allow these large groups? I hope it doesn't happen again as I like playing this course.

I asked about getting a cooler with some ice in it since it was 108 degrees. The pro shop said I could get it free from the restaurant. When I went in to the restaurant they wanted to give me a plastic bag with some ice in it! How crazy is that? It would just melt in a few minutes. They said they could not give me a small cooler unless I ordered some beer to go in it. They would not accept my request to put Gatorade in it since I don't drink. The woman was not happy but finally agreed to give me the cooler if I bought one beer. So, I gave the beer to the pro shop guy. But clearly they are not clear even though they are in the same small building, The restaurant lady clearly was not concerned about me being practically the only golfer on the course in the hot late morning. Suffice it to say, I did not order lunch from the restaurant.

Played 2 over on the front nine and 8 over on the back nine. Greens were decent. Tee boxes are a bit rough. Could use some flattening. Skipped a hole to get ahead of a very slow foursome. Nice day.

Took 5 hours. Waiting on every hole. Standing water. Hard to get a rhythm going. Nice weather.

Nice layout. Things are in need of a refresh...bathrooms, tee boxes, etc. Fair number of dirt patches and sand bunkers were under repair.

Golf Now did not tell me that even though I booked a tee time for 12:56 that actually it was a shotgun start at 12:30 for everyone. I joined a group already started so it worked out OK, but this should be changed so golfers know that they do a shot gun start.

Tee time was 1:15. We were only able to play 15 holes before it was too dark. Play was really slow. No ranger to make sure pace was kept. Also too many people were booked too close together. Result was we were waiting on every hole. Not good after paying $60 to wait that much and not finish.

Executive course with some challenging holes. Greens were in decent shape. Enjoyed the round as I only paid $11 via Golfnow. Not a scenic course...with a Jack in the Box almost on one of the fairways, but I will play it again.

This time of year when most of the courses are super expensive, this is a nice place to play for a reasonable cost. It is an executive course in terms of length, but there are a few holes where you can use your driver. It takes about an hour and a half to play 9 holes.

Got out early at 7 am. Finished in under 3 hours. Greens are in good shape. Some of the tee boxes are a bit bumpy and not as flat as one would like. Par is 70. Had a good time.

We expected to play 18 holes but found out that the second nine was actually a par 3 course. They did not tell us and Golf Now did not have that information either.
So, it was disappointing that this was not disclosed before we played. Would have picked a different course.

The course is in fairly decent shape. There are brown patches of dirt on some of the fairways, but the main issue is the greens. Many of them are sloping and the holes were cut on the side of a slope. This makes for extremely difficult putting. Hard to get a good score when you are on the green in regulation, but you are lucky to three-putt.
