Rangers

Rangers are rare at most courses but this one had three. Nothing was said by either of them as to the cart path only rule because of heavy rain the night before. They did catch up to us on hole 8 and scolded us for being in the fairway and another quick reminder as we made the turn. Why wouldn't they have said anything to us on #1 when all 3 were huddled under a tree chatting and could clearly see us take off down the fairway? Maybe the pro shop could've said something when we paid. Besides that it was a good time.

Nice course

Nice course--greens extremely fast--hard to get used to. Course a little tight but well kept. It appeared they monitored the pace of play. Took about 2:15 for 9 holes--so not horrible

Great course with inpeccable greens but the pace of play on a random, summer Sunday was horrible. 6 hours to play 18 and the front nine took 3 hours and 20 minutes. Disappointing as the rest of the course was amazing.

Over price

The golf course is over price for ordinary people and high schooler try to get better. The pace of play is slow.. not sure if they try to schedule to many people so the pace seems to rush.

Over 5 hours to complete round

Issue with slow play. It’s hard to enjoy when you’re waiting 10 minutes every hole
