Played On 09/02/2017Course needs work, the locals are perfect
I booked a weekend late morning round. Got there early to hit the range but the pro informed me there weren't any balls. He was nice enough to let me tee off almost an hour early.
The course has a lot of potential and I hope they get the patronage they need to get it together. Fairways were very patchy, greens were slow and some with weeds, bunkers were full of pebbles - things that can easily be fixed. There were a few pretty and challenging holes.
What stuck out to me the most were how friendly and courteous the local players were. I was playing by myself trying to get a quick round in and every group I played up on immediately offered to wave me through. One even spotted my ball, tended the pin, and gave me directions to the next hole. This is in stark contrast to a lot of the nicer clubs I've played where nobody knows how to act like a decent human.
Overall I had a great time, met a lot of nice golfers, and finished in about 3 hours. I would definitely return for another round.
