Leave the Driver at Home

In 18 holes I hit the driver 4 holes. Teeing off on LONG par 4s and 5s with 6 irons and 5 irons to avoid hitting in the abyss is not fun at all. The course has great fairways, AMAAZING greens, but the layout is AWFUL. It’s not fun.

Didnt even finish the round; Wasnt worth the drive

Basics:

New to this site, but im an average golfer and dont mind an occassional breakfast ball if there isnt anyone behind me.

My tee time: 3:10pm

I would say that this course is arguably one of the slowest paces of play I have ever seen. From the conditions of the fareways, unrepared divots, and the patchy greens (Hole 13s might as well have a bunker 6 feet inside the front of the green).

Staff was friendly to start but non-existent on the course and the cart girl carries very limited amounts and brands.

Course Layout was wierd and the carts could barely make it up the paths in some areas due to lack of concrete, broken concrete, or unnessasary incline.

I was a solo golfer so my pace is different from a foursome and through the first 3 holes the one group ahead of me allowed me to play through. Nice guys.

On hole 5 I joined in on a foursome (their tee was at 2:30pm) for some guys that offered since they had only 3. For the rest of the front 9, we had amazing pace and were able to relax through it.

On hole 9 is when we caught up to the group in front of us, and to say they were slow was an understatement. We were the 2nd group stuck behind them. Staff was called due to their lack of willingness to let other groups play through and their unwillingness to pick up the pace instead of taking multiple shots at each hole position.

I unfortunately didnt even finish my round and stopped at hole 13, still stuck behind the same group. That was at 7pm.

When I arrived at the clubhouse to again let them know of the slow up, i found all of the staff to be missing. There was nobody at the cart return, clubhouse or pro-shop.

Will not be back.

Beautiful and challenging

Great course. Though quite remote. Punishing uneven lies if you don’t know the course or have poor accuracy like me.. massive elevation changes make club selection challenging. Add a little bit of wind and blamo your OB. Quite a wake up call for me since I’ve been playing in Florida this past year. Loved it will for sure play again.

Way too many people…. It took 5+ hours to play 18 holes.

Delays and pace was really bad.

Had 12:40 tee time but they had huge tournament that started late 9:45. Log jam at tee box started us 50 minutes late then pace was horrible the whole round. Had to leave at 6;00 and had only played 14 holes with our 3 some, Everything else was great.
