Fun Short course

Short 6300 yards, fun with a few tricks involved like traps, water and moguls.

Very Slow

Have never seen this before... there were two foursomes waiting to tee off on the -2nd- hole, when we finished the first hole. Someone said the 3rd hole was a potential driveable par 4, and groups would wait until the green was clear. Either way, it was an unbelievably slow -nearly 3 hours for 9 (we quit at the turn), slowest I have ever seen. Waited at every hole. Although maybe have just been a bad day, probably not going to risk playing it again.

Greens are goofy

Had not played here in 30 years. Redesign is cool but I thought the tiered greens were not fair. All the tiered greens the pin was way back. Impressive improvements with limited acreage.

Great golf club

Great shape, great layout and challenging greens. Love how many of the holes are not your straightforward holes.
