Played On 06/01/2020Prepare to play back to back
First things first the course is great for a muni. A nice start with a par 5 and some interesting holes on the front 9 nine. The back 9 plays longer and is a bit 'tougher'. Plenty of trees on the course which makes it feel lovely, but don't get stuck on them.
Unfortunately the experience is consistently affected by how many people they have on the course. I guess they've been a victim of their own success but expect for tees to get backed up. Almost acceptable in normal times, but I write this review during the covid19 pandemic. Most other courses in the area have spaced out tee times, but not here. The course is packed and I can't quite believe this is safe. They have implemented some great ideas such as the ability to get your ball out of the hole with a clever device you lift with your putter. But this doesn't make up for how prepared they are to fill the course to the brim. It's the standard greeting with anyone on the course, and I think verges on irresponsible.
