Great service

From the time I dropped my clubs off till I putted out on 18 I enjoyed the course greatly.
Service at bag drop and pro shop was very professional and friendly.
Greens were a bit rough but they had aerated only a week a go.
Course is tight in some places so bring enough golf balls and don’t let your ego be too big.
A course rating of 136 at 6000 yards should be fair warning to bring your A game.

5somes and not enough carts

I made a tee time for a single a month prior to date of play. My wife and I travel a lot and she does not play so I am used to making single tee times and getting paired up or bumping my time a slot or two.
Sometimes you meet great and interesting people when paired up.
I never got the chance this time.
I arrived at the course to find out they had a 5some going out just before me. The guy at bag drop said they do that often. Then the cherry on top was when I was told they were out of carts and my tee time would be at least a half hour late.
The only good experience was that they refunded my green fee.
How do you run out of carts at a resort/tourist course at 12:30 on a Thursday?
I was looking forward to the round and was very disappointed.

Turtlebacks

Course in good overall shape and a value
Don’t even think about walking it though
Lot of hills
Many greens were turtlebacked with flags in tight to the front if above the whole you can’t stop the ball from getting to the hole then rolling off the front.
If in front and you don’t get up to the hole your ball will roll back to you and off the green
No reason to have such tough pin placements at a resort course.

Covid-19 Hypocrite

First the course was in good shape and greens rolled true. The set up is a bit weird in that 2/3 of the par 4's are less than 350 yards, but then 3/4 of the par 3's are in excess of 200 with one over 235 - all from the tips.

What upset this reviewer during the Coviid-19 pandemic s that despite mandating masks in the pro-shop, plexi-glass between you and the cashier and a big sign before you enter the pro shop to practice social distancing, they charge an extra $10 to have a single in a cart. They had plenty of carts, when we teed off, at the turn, and when we finished. To me this is simply a money grab for people trying to stay safe during these challenging times. It's as if the course owners are saying we want to be safe, but we are going to charge you extra to be safe. Based on this attitude I can not recommend you go to this course in 2020.
