Waited 5 minutes or more on most tee boxes and approaches. Group behind us hit up into or past our position on several occasions, despite our group being a twosome riding.

There was only 1 other golfer on the course at 9:45am on a Tuesday. Never played the track before, and would like to come back when the weather hasn't saturated fairways & greens. Lost several balls in the fairway......(plugged or hidden by leaves).

A few holes were hard to anticipate where to place shot off tee (#12). There is a small patch of trees at the dog leg, and you could play the hole with a short cut, if you knew that in advance.

As is often my experience at W.C., pace of play was abysmal. My playing partner left after 9, and as I made the turn, a pair (husband & wife) had just been sent off on #10 (Blue) even though they were clearly not ahead of us on the front (White). Fortunately, they allowed me to play through. I was not as fortunate when I got to #13.. I could see a couple on #15 tee when I hit my approach on 13. They were still waiting to hit their approach on #15 as I stood on 15 tee. It took almost an hour to play from their on in. I understand that, there are all different skill level players on a golf course. A ranger telling people to either hurry up, or wave faster players up would help a ton at your facility, IMO.

My experience began by being hurried from the range to wait 10 minutes on 1 tee. It was nearly an hour through #4. Front side was well over 2 hours. 3 groups stood at #5 with another searching for balls in trees left of fairway.

Apparently the slowest players didn't make the turn, but still slow play on the back followed. Multiple players in group ahead hit 2 off par 4 and 5 tees, while we sought shade from the humid day.

Greens were receptive, yet rolled true and were well manicured. Several greenside bunkers were more like gardens then sand.

I reserved a 12:48 tee time. We arrived a bit early and were told to go ahead. We teed off and once arriving at #2, saw a threesome hitting their second shot on #2??
We then waited an average of more than 5 minutes at every tee box until #10 where finally the threesome waved us ahead. Once we played 10, we never saw another group ahead of us.

The fairways were nice & greens rolled true. Seems like a little more general manicuring would make this course even more enjoyable overall. (Bunkers, 2nd cut of rough, transitions, waste areas, etc...

Good value when playing on GolfNow.

We booked a last minute mid afternoon tee time on the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend. Expected play to be slow, but after #1, we never saw the walking twosome that played ahead of us the rest of the day (as a riding threesome). We also didn't have anyone pushing us- for the record- and played 18 within 4 minutes of recommended pace of play. Going back soon!
