Course is nice, but played on a Friday afternoon with no starter and bailed after a few. When you arrive there are no signs at all leading you to the pro shop. Turns out it’s actually up a flight of stairs in the back and down a narrow hallway on the right. 2 decks of concrete stairs in golf spikes is a bit of a head scratcher, but I can deal. Walk into the pro shop and a guy says “last name” and hands me a key. That’s it. Not a single word more. I go back down the stairs to what seems to be a random pile of about 25 or so carts. Some with bags, some private, some with cups and trash but no bags. Just a mess. But hey, I grew up on Tomoka Oaks in Ormond. I’m can deal with a mess, and those courses have a soul sometimes. But this really started to get frustrating after a solid 5 min where I can’t find a new cart, and worse yet I just can’t find a person who works there. 5 becomes 10 and finally a human emerges from the cave under the building and sets me up with a cart. Time to play!!!!

I’m a single and I say to the kid who gave me the cart “can I just go off now?” “I guess” he responds. “Ok then”, I followed the arrow to the first tee box. I arrive at the tee to find a 4 some on the box, 2 some in the fairway and single on the green. Hmmm....I think, will jump over to the back. Awesome 10th tee is empty!!! Shoot par, and off to 11. At the 11th box I find a 2 some waiting to tee off, and a 6 some!!!!!!! In the fairway. Well not to bore you anymore, but I could only last a few holes of this. It just isn’t a fun way to play golf. After about the 7th group in 5 holes let me play through, I called it a day. Course was beautiful though. Really enjoyed what I played. And will probably come back on a weekday sometime in the morning where I maybe able to play at an enjoyable pace.
