Had first tee time and arrived early. Started round at 6:35 AM and finished in 2 hours and 40 minutes as a single. Given the significant amount of winter kill around Charlotte courses, the turf conditions were very good. Bunkers had drained well from the rains the day before and sand was overall pretty soft. Only complaint is the greens were severely ball marked and pretty slow. Course has started an aggressive tree removal program (on-going it appears) which has provided improved sight lines, more sunlight and therefore dryer turf. For rack rate of $33 on a holiday morning this is a great deal.

Glad to see work being done with some new tee boxes being built on 16 and what looks like bunker work on 15. Greens slow, but rolled true. Needs a good dose of week killer on fairways. Decent course with great pro shop staff. A little pricey got its condition, but still an enjoyable course.
