Course is close to rock bottom

I have seen this course continue to go downhill in terms of maintenance.

A friend wanted to play there today so I tagged along. Green fee was $30 and they gave you a coupon for a free round in the future (but you still have to pay $20 for a cart during your free round). Guess that means the golf only cost $10 now.

So 2 rounds for $25 each - still not worth it. They indicated several of the fairways are being planted with new Bermuda grass and as such they require a lot of watering and if you ball lands in those areas (which on some fairways are huge), you play it as ground under repair. So you trek out to the middle of the mud pile (they call new grass) pick up your ball , walk back out of the roped area and take a drop. Not sure how all this foot traffic is going to promote grass growing.

And I can understand that growing and maintain grass is difficult and takes time to turn around. But the bunkers were a joke. Mostly dirt and rock. Areas where they use railroad tie steps are so rotted they are dangerous.

Half of the water containers on the course were empty (and it was almost 90 out). The 'mid course' snack shack was closed and no beverage cart.

For now this is a $15 course #with cart#

Greaet course as always

A very hard challenging layout. Only using 2 sets of tees during the winter Green (5300) and GOld (>6500) Not crowded so pace of play was good. COuld use some work to get it ready for spring (lots of fairway diviots and ball marks on the green). Bunkers were in good shape. Lots of the high grass areas were knocked down but still not a place you want your ball to land

Staff here is always top notch. No starter/marshalls or beverage cart
