This course is a pleasure to play
Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in great condition. Nice views of surrounding areas. It’s a popular course so pace was a little slow, had to wait at each hole but that’s to be expected once the snow birds arrive.

Slowest round of my life!
Nice enough course! Pace of play was ridiculous! A Marshall would have changed things. Allowing an overly drunk group of 8 (yes, that is an eight)…to play the final 2 holes as one group! 5 hours and twenty minutes for 18 is unacceptable on ANY course! Better courses in the area make this a no brainer!!Will take my $$ elsewhere!

Beginner Friendly
Two of the holes are challenging but overall it’s a good course. If you’re an experienced player you won’t struggle on them like I did
