Was pleasantly surprised

The course was in great shape. Not the longest course but definitely challenging. Excellent value for the cost. I would play here again for sure.

Played sparrow today, conditions were pretty good, I’d recommend this to someone looking for something a bit shorter but still fun and challenging.

Great Course. Really loved the Layout

Played Heron many times. This was our first time on Sparrow. Loved it. Lots of challenges, but short enough to walk comfortably. Considering becoming members.

No sand in bunkers

Bunkers are clay. Greens and tee decks are well maintained. Weather was very hot, but could walk the course in cooler weather.
