They should be ashamed of their traps

If you are going to take a fee to play your course then provide a product that is worthy of a $50 fee. Your traps are literally a joke. If you don't want to put sand in them then fill them in and don't ruin the playing experience, no one want to his out of mud and or rock hard dirt, I mean really. Also I know you are public but, if your players won't fix the ball marks and divots with the brown woody stuff you provide on the cart (yes we used it), then you need to fix them. Some of the ball marks of which there were hundreds on each green are weeks old.

Tough comments, I know we have been putting in new sand in all the bunkers over the last year. We will check with our Superintendent, thanks for the feedback. Maybe the extreme rain has washed the sand away. it has been hard to keep up with the rain this year.

Challenging but Terrible Condition

If you do not land in the eighteen yards of marginal fairway, you are in DIRT. The greens are average and the tee boxes are almost domed. It is too bad the owner do not have the desire or funds to water and get the course into shape as the layout is interesting and unique. But from what my wife and I saw on our round the course is most likely not going to make it. As for the staff the guy working the cart is a very pleasant person and the one owner Eddie is also. But the father and son working the desk area were having a loud argument while I was trying to pay them and obviously did not care that I was there. My wife used to love coming here but the atmosphere and course but we will not be back again.

Getting Better

I played this course a few years back and was frankly unimpressed at the condition at the time, but did like the layout. I decided to give it another chance as they had an early tee time. I am happy to see that management has decided to put some money back into the course and i hope they continue as it has the potential to be a great venue. I will try them again next winter on the next vacation and hope they have stayed the course, so to speak.

Slow Play

The twosome in front of us waited until the 6th hole before they let us thru, although we were waiting after every shot. Then they did it to another twosome for a few holes before they let them thru. This is a great course and can be played easily in 3.5 hrs if everyone is considerate and plays and does nor fish for balls.
Unfortunately the 19th hole is never open when I tee off so can sample the breakfast food
