The greens were in excellent condition October 4.
Routing through the subdivision requires that you ride; a problem with a lot of golf courses.
Overall maintenance continues to impair the fun of the design; the traps are baked dirt. The signature risk / reward hole #9, asks you to challenge the hazard on your drive, but the riskier option is lost because the hazard is so overgrown the shot is blind. The same problem is presented on #10; the potential shot to reach the green in 2 is just an act of faith. Bring some balls.

The remodel in 2001 (?) installed interesting contoured greens and but ludicrous fairways, Overall, it's a mess. The philosophy for the fairways seems to be simple: install sand traps in all the landing areas. #7 has a cross bunker now that the trees on the left are overgrown and pinch the fairway. Other new cross bunkers slow the play of 1, 2, 11, and 18. The remodel reduced the playability of the Ralph Plummer minimalist design. It’s just a shame, especially when you see what Dallas did when rethinking their munis. The city had a no-nonsense course with some pedigree (Plummer worked for Brademus and Maxwell) and turned into just a muni.
