Course Highlights

(Updated July 2023) Hospitality and fast play.  These are two things this course really focuses on and does a great job with.  As a foursome on a busy Saturday morning we played in 3.5 hours.  Staff was very friendly with no stuffy vibe anywhere.  Greens and course were a little more brown than normal but we have had a lot of hot dry weather recently.  Generally this course is in very good shape.  Lots of interesting hole designs and a little less deep rough make rounds here a nice balance between fun and challenging.  Clubhouse has lots of interesting character and driving range has auto ball feeders which is a rare treat; although you will be hitting off a mat to use this feature.  Brand new golf carts for 2020 are also top of the line and a pleasure to use!

Condition*

8.7

Although excessive and recent hot dry weather has held back conditions a little, all playing areas and surfaces were still very good and should return to excellent soon.

Playability

8.3

Well balanced course in terms of variety, risk/reward, forced carries, and green undulations.  Offset a little bit by several blind shots and some holes that were pretty tight to each other.

Visual Impact

8.6

Excellent level of finishing touches throughout the course and very nice elevation changes.  Trees, water, sand, and mounding had good visual appeal.  Lots of housing may be a detraction for some.

Additional Info

Pace of Play: Very good this time and also last time we played on a Sat morning.
