Played On 03/26/2018Great Layout, A Little Under Maintained
Awesome layout with a lot of interesting holes. Greens rolled great and super fast but we’re rock hard. Almost impossible to hold even wedges into them. Looked like they had cut back on maintenance a bit since it’s days hosting the PGA. Still a good deal for the $40 we paid.

Played On 08/16/2015Nice staff, TERRIBLE conditions
This course changed owners a few years back and I really enjoyed the course back then. Not so much under the new ownership. It looked less like the nice links course I remembered and more like the set of Mad Max.
I expect a little bit of brown grass on any links course due to wind and lack of shade but this was extreme. The fairways were mostly dead and what wasn't was more crabgrass than bentgrass. The tees were the same way.
The greens rolled fairly quick but had large dead or spotty patches as well. It's been a fairly good year for rain here so my only assumption is they've tried to save money by not watering. Hope they saved a lot.
The cart gps was also very annoying. I went off the path on one par 3 that set off the return to path alarm and then it continued to go off at random for the rest of the round. So that was great.
On the other hand the clubhouse staff was great and the bar and restaurant had a very friendly and welcoming environment. I'd say go there for a cheap lunch but skip the golf. Even the $15 golf now rate I got wasn't worth it.
