Work continues

Greens dressed; automatic 2 putt.
Many temporary tee boxes. A lot of work has been done and still more to do. I’ll be back.

Still waiting for grass to grow

Not much in the way of fairway grass. Greens haven't recovered from the aeration. But, a fun day with a very good friend. We'll be back..

Tee boxes beginning to grow in. Greens still slow after rain. Very poor fairway drainage on several holes. Some greens with very bad areas. Good value for money.

2 courses in 1

Even with plugged greens, the rolls were fairly true. Several spots on the greens have been "lost." Many tee boxes meed to grow in.. Very slow greens today. Front 9 is flat and wide open. Back 9 is for shot makers with elevation changes on most holes. I'll be back.

One of my better rounds

Just played 9 holes; the front nine.
Sand was in good condition this time.
Fairways a little tight; rough a little easy (thank you); greens running 8-9. Course was busy, but didn't wait much at all; finished 9 in a little over 1 and a half hours.

Cold and windy

Only played 9 holes this time; the front 9. Winter rye needs to come in. Traps need some attention. Greens were firm and moderate speed. I'll be back.

Getting in better shape

The course conditions are improving. Still some parts of fairways and around greens that need to grow in, and some sand traps need attention. But it's better than the last time I played here.

Someone needs to get the city to remove a lot of trees to improve the layout and fairways, and to repair the HOLE in the 11th fairway.

Greens were running true, but were somewhat slow (8-10?)

An enjoyable round.

I'll Be Back

I enjoy this course. It has 2 different personalities; one for each side. You cannot always hit driver and it allows "links style" shot making on most holes. Pin placement can make the difficulty easy or not, as can the speed of the greens. Saturday, the greens were fairly slow. Traps need some attention, as do many of the tee boxes. Still some fairways that need grass. A good course for seniors, with a walkable front side. We'll be back.

Needs groundskeeper

Needs someone who understands WNC temps, weather and grasses. Mgt let winter rye stand too long before burning it off. Now bermuda doesn't have enough summer left to grow in. Get some.local expertise. If other local courses can manage to keep grass so can Muni.

Owners are working hard to continue improvements.The difference in layout between front and back nine make for 2 distinct courses. We will certainly play I again and again.
