Excellent but crowded

The course is excellent with nice fairways , a lot of sand traps and water hazards at several holes. The one thing wrong is not enough space between the tee off parties. We tee off at 1 and the next foursome was right behind us and so on. A few times we had to wait for two foursomes ahead of us so we could tee off. I did shoot my lowest score that day and still felt rushed.

Lots of GRASS

Course is growing in nicely. Tee boxes and greens were excellent. Fairways coming along. Greens were thick, lush and slow. Pace of play was quite slow...4hr 35 min. Some very challenging pin placements.

Nice greens

Course in very good shape. Pace of play was slow. Need rangers telling groups to keep up with group in front of them or let groups behind play through.

Lots of traps!

The course layout was good with plenty of fairway, but many sand traps. Conditions were mixed. Tee boxes needed to be mowed, fairways were bare in many places and greens, while grassy, were inconsistent and needed mowing. Trays were hard with a thin layer of sand.

It could be a beautiful course, but needs maintenance.

Previous Reviews Were Correct

I read other reviews on this course before I played it and most of them were correct. The tee boxes were fine, the greens were ok, but the fairways were terrible. They are not very wide and so they are hard to hit and if you miss a fairway, it is just hard pan dirt. It is very difficult to play this course if you miss the fairway. Next time I would try a different course in the area for the same price.
