Great layout, condition of bunkers and fairways not so great

This is a wonderful mountain layout. We found the course played much longer than the yardage would indicate. But you get hardly any roll. A lot of blind shots, so the yardage book is a must. The greens were in good shape, but due to weather, had not been cut. Also, it was imperative that you stayed out of the rough. If you found your ball in the rough, it was very difficult to get out, and virtually impossible to get out any distance.

We were also looking forward to eating at the Brewery afterward. Upon arriving, we found out it was closed for the day due to a party the day early. It would have been nice to know so we could have scheduled our tee time for another day.

The cart guy was very friendly, and gave us some tips prior to teeing off. The other two guys were all business though.

Our group was split, two didn't want to come back, and two would return. The blind shots and the thick rough were the biggest reason.

Greens and fairways were in good cond,, bunkers terrible

We were happy to find the greens and fairways in very good condition. However most of the bunkers were just mud. And the tee boxes could have used a mowing. Great, fun layout.There were a couple of blind tee shots, but each hole has a diagram by the back tees.

The pro shop staff was very friendly, but we stopped in the grill after our round to get something to eat. The were out of hamburger, fries, chicken salad, tea, and had one hot dog, but no chili. They did have some tuna salad sandwiches, but it wasn't clear when they were made, We ate elsewhere.

We'd love to come back, but it would be nice to know the issues with their bunkers had been addressed.

Good condition, nice staff, grill was closed

The course was in good condition, with the greens full. They were slow (it's been hot, today was 95F), and grainy. Fairways were firm.

My only complaint was I told the desk that I was going to walk, but wasn't told how difficult it was to find water on the course. We finally did find one spigot on #15.

Otherwise, we were pleased with condition and the course.
