A great layout with lots of challenges
Greens had been aerated which is a fact of life but affects play

Awful temp green on signature hole

It’s aerated and a temp green on number 18 that was simple a hole in the fairway. Just didn’t seem like they were trying. I love this course normally.

Awesome course with a one off

We had an awesome day on the course. Wonderful layout and challenging spots with others that helped boost your confidence. Only complaint was the group in front of us connected with another group and had 7 players. The couple behind us told the Marshall and it took a little while for it to be resolved so we had an hour or so of added time on the course waiting around. Ended up being a great day and I know this wasn’t a normal occurrence. Not the courses fault, these people made it a long day is all.

Too slow.

We all quit our round at hole 12. Almost 3 hours to play 9 holes!. We waited behind a 4-some who waited behind two 2-somes who were waiting behind a terribly slow 4-some. There were two open fairways in front of this 4-some. The course is good but is too crowded in the morning.
