Great, tough course - target golf - not for beginners. Great staff and service. Lots of natural beauty everywhere you look. Gorgeous!

Fairways are wide but the bunkers are punishing and very steep if you unfortunately have to get out of one - which is extremely likely as there are many and every green is guarded by them - even in front - so forget about running up shots to them. Tees, fairways and greens are all in excellent shape. The only complaint is that their bunkers (especially greenside) are Very steep & have very little sand at their base , which makes greenside outs very difficult even for above average players which I am not. If you can't hit high and flush irons you'll be spending your day hitting out of them :)

Great course, great shape, but hardly any sand in steep greenside bunkers

Excellent greens, fairways and tee boxes considering the summer transition to bermuda. Extremely challenging and very picturesque setting surrounded by wildlife and nature.
My only complaint was the lack of sand in your unfriendly and steep greenside bunkers . I could not blast out and bladed some of my shots due to this very avoidable issue. You're very stingy with how much sand you provide. Your course is very pricey and the least you provide are bunkers with sufficient sand to give an average player half a chance. Your bunkers are as deep and as numerous as I've seen anywhere and difficult enough just to pop it out even if there was an acceptable sand base to get underneath with your wedge and have at least a chance to save par. What should have bogeys turned into triples because the lack of sand caused me to blade the shot over the green. I understand there will be bunker renovations very soon and hope you will act on my complaint as other reviewers have also commented on this issue.

Greens are gone unfortunately don't play this course

This was my favorite course but they lost greens and putted on greens dressed with sand! Terrible. I called before I booked and pro shop lied to me and said course was in great shape. Dishonesty will come back to bite you. Everything else was great but with unputtable greens it's an unhappy experience. Waste of time and money. Once greens come back a great course. Don't trust what pro shop tells you!

Great layout, Troon did a great job. Lush fairways.

Excellent layout. 3 nines make it faster play. Greens are large and have alot of ridges and tiers making approach shots crucial. Beware of the steep bunkers. Greens roll true. Tee boxes are above average. I played Silver tees as I was with older golfers. I would have preferred Combo tees. Course is highly recommended. they have a nice restaurant, bar and patio too .

Bunkers in poor condition- lack of sand now

I have played course multiple times after Wuhan virus restrictions implemented and the bunkers sand is in bad shape. Use to be soft sand now coarse and crusty with lack of sand underneath at base. No excuse for this and has nothing to do with lack of rakes.
This is a greenskeeper issue.

Great course

A tree lined course with pines. Reminds me of a Georgia. Great shape and picturesque..rolling fairways. Bunkers are very deep and LACK ENOUGH SAND especially for the greenside bunkers! My only complaint. Why can't you fill them properly?
So easy to improve.

Tee boxes and sand traps need better maintenance

I realize your course gets a lot play. But there's no excuse do not have a fair amount of sand in the bunkers to give a player.a decent chance to not run off the green and no chance for due to the lack of sand and neglect in raking them every morning.
My good sand shots could have saved me par if it wasn't for the lack of sand and the lack of quality of maintenance of them.
You tee boxes were in bad shape due lack of player golf etiquette and laziness like the never ending problem with unfilled fairway divots. I know tee rotation is a must.
The worst bunker is the huge one in front of the 9th green. Terrible.shape - unraked and shallow.
The greenside bunker on left side of green on #12 had no sand and was like hitting a hardpan shot. Shallow and couldn't pop it up and nearly went in pond across green.
Besides that your course has great value and challenging. And will continue to play it occasionally. Your staff is excellent and practice facility is above average.

The course gives the weekend golfer a chance to roll it up. Greens running fast and smooth. Only issue is that the bunkers are not consistent and have pebbles/stones in them

Good tees, lush fairways /rough, challenging layout - unique

Well-managed! I like how you keep the rough green in winter. Do you overseed it? ONLY THING THAT DISAPPOINTS: why can't the greens be slicker? They seem a bit too slow.

A must visit-Great shape! Fast greens,

The course was great. It was fair to a short hitter that can't carry frontage bunkers. Fairways and greens are top notch. Greenside bunkers need more sand though.
A shame the employees need to get out there and fill divots left by lazy a-holes on fairways more often. I will be back more punishment!

FAST greens!

Layout is flat but challenging. Fairways are ok greens are quick and some pin placements are ridiculous on hills. Putt and ball keeps rolling back! 4-5 putting is not fun. Good course good value! Nice staff!

Thank you for filling out the online comment card after your round. The greens are in great shape right now, and very fast. We do have some large and sloped greens so keeping the ball below the hole is crucial.

Undulating mogul fairways and deep bunker-guarded greens

Lots of challenge. Played from middle tees. Par 3's were not long but must carry bunkers. greens rolled well and speedy .
Only complaint is fairways had little grass and seemed soggy in places where carts left tracks behind. I don't think they reseeded for winter
