good conditions, challenging course
This was our second time playing this course. This time we made 18, but the last hole was in the dark. Group in front of us were taking multiple shots from the tee with no consideration of people behind them. So a bit slow. No marshalls to help out.
The course itself was in good shape. VERY fast greens. SUPER fast, almost unplayable per the gentlemen in our group. Us ladies were more forgiving of the conditions. It was hard, but you deal with what you have.

bad check in experience
I went to check in and was told I had no reservation which I pulled up on my phone and told her she was mistaken, after 15 minutes of back and forth I paid an extra 8 bucks and we played golf. Baloney!

The absence of a driving range to warm up was a major negative. Some adjustment to the price should have been made.

Course needs work. Tees and fairways in decent shape. Greens are ok but pretty slow. Quite a bit of ground which i would call ground under repair, but not sure anyone is actually repairing it.

This course has recently undergone new green development and they are, frankly, too young and absurdly hard. Avoid for the 2024 calendar year and try again in the winter of 24/25.
A side note but the burn on the sides isn't watered. The fairways were in decent shape, greens a bit burnt and described by staff as 'turtle shells', but it's certainly not the prettiest course as a result in the area.
Another note - we saw the cart service twice with only a single-sandwich selection, there's 1 washroom at 9, 'no urinating' signs everywhere. Neither myself nor my guests were interested in trying Mountain and won't go back.
