The layout of the course is interesting, challenging and features perfectly manicured lush, rolling fairways. You'll be glad you experienced this excellent combination of hole designs and truly great golf. Water comes into play on 10 holes.

Not easy

Some whole ask you to be pin point to the flag. Others are fine only if you start at the right place(black, blue , red etc). If not you will have challenge to go over like trees, bunker or water. Finally the green are fast and uneven. You need to carefully read the green.

In conclusion it is a golf course if you want to see where you are in you improvements.

Course in great shape

Course is in great shape. I have however noted 3 or 4 women box tee that were sandy.
Staff was exceptionally agreable and pleasant. If this course was easier (for me), I would play it more :)

6 Hour round!

The vibe sucks. The people that work there are rude and act like you are a burden by just being there. Took 2.5 hours just to get through 5 holes. Met the marshal on hole 6 and informed her that we were on pace for a six hour round. She was like yeah it’s busy today. She could’ve cared less. The other three guys I was playing with left without finishing the round. The last guy made it to hole 13 before calling it quits. I played with a couple other guys for one hole and then they called it quits as well. I’ve played the course two other times and it was slow then as well but not 6 hours slow. I’m never giving this place my money again.

Challenging to say the least

A course that will humble you every time!
No matter what your skill level is, expect ta spanking. The only certainty is that your game will improve at the next round but that’s going to be on another golf course because this one never gets old.

Great course

I played this course for the first time after driving by it for a year and I'm glad I did. Long course but very beautiful. Greens were in great shape and very fast. Over all a great course and I look forward to playing it again.
