Disappointed after a few years
Grew up playing this course and have always loved the layout. Moved away 13 years ago and came back to play while visiting in town. Course was dry and not much grass in the fairways. Understand the weather conditions but other courses in the area did not have the issues. The staff was very friendly and the layout was what I remembered. However, just could not get past the dried out fairways and hard greens. Got behind a foursome of the "regulars" that were slow and never offered to let us, as a two some, play through.

Good Spring test
Terrific course and the weather could not have been better. This course offers a good challenge but one that is not overwhelming. Greens and fairways were in good shape but it was obvious that we were playing in early spring before things were in full bloom. We had a great day on this golf course.
