Fun course!

This is a wide open, great course the only problem is with all the rain we’ve had the grass is LONG! Both in the middle of the fairway there were places that it seemed long enough to be rough, and the rough itself you easily lose balls. I will wait to play again in the summer months. Much more fun!!

Great

For a first timer on this course it was great!, the 15th hole had the best view from up top the mountain looking down on the course and the valley, just incredible.

Greens still healing from aerating a week ago so they were slow from the sand that still impacts the speed of the greens. Other than that the course is in great shape.

What a Time!

From tee to green this was a captivating round of golf! The green quality was outstanding, a must for a 5-star review from me… Such an interesting course layout! Can’t wait to launch my tee shot at the green on the elevated “cliff shot” on hole 15 next time, lost my ball left. I’ll be back!
