Had to pay double because of the app

Went in to check in for my tee time and was told I owed for 3 golfers, when I had already paid beforehand. Couldn’t start until paying. Worth the money, but watch out who you book through.

Another course in a housing development

Played Sands and Piper. Nothing special other than location (we were staying in Sandpiper Bay). If you can find a good Hot Deal, it's fine. Otherwise you're better off playing the Reese Jones course across the street. The conditions are good and greens are consistant.
