I love this course and have been playing it since I was 16....40+ years. The course is well maintained, the open air bar is a nice touch. My issue has been the booking time the last couple of times I've been out. I booked a 1:07 pm time and you sure as heck better be off by 5 pm because leagues start and they trundle out to the tees and if you're not finished, too bad you're stuck. I was done by others behind we were not so fortunate. I think this should be made clear at time of booking or at least when you arrive.

Play somewhere else. This course is in horrible condition. The fairways were not mowed, the sandtraps had not been raked in weeks, you could not tell thifference between a fairway and the rough. The greens were burnt up. I played this course last year and it was fine, terrible this year. Seems like they just want to get through and are ready to sell, although that is just a guess.

Course was well maintained, and made much easier by the filling is of many fairway bunkers, probably a cost cutting move as the greenside bunkers hadn't been maintained. It's a fairly wide open course and the prevailing winds can cause problems, however it's pricey for that type of course.

I had heard so much about this course over the last few years since I moved here that I had to play it, and was underwhelmed. Make no mistake, the course is beautiful and in great shape, what I found ridiculous was the pace of play. Most courses space the groups out every 10 minutes, here it's 9 and if you don't think that's a big deal, get behind a lousy foursome like we did. Play was stacked up behind us, and in front of them and there was no where for us to go...and that's fine, I get it but no way should a round take 5 hours, and this one did. For the money, I'd probably play elsewhere.
