Course was not in great shape but has great potential. They were in the process of over-seeding so should get better.

Great course design

The course is layed out very well, with water holes and scenic homes.
Unfortunately, it is in very rough condition. Almost no fairway grass, playing on sand and dirt mostly.
For 22.00 for 18 holes I guess you definitely get what you pay for. Unfortunate ☹️

So Much Better

We played here 3 months ago and I swore I'd never come back. I do love the layout so we gave it another shot. We were pleasantly surprised because the course was much better and we enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely be back...

Good weather, good course conditions

The course was in fairly good shape. The greens were good, and the fairways were ok. Some of the fairways lacked grass, which was occasionally like hitting out of a bunker. But overall, the course was good. The layout of the holes is great, and there’s a good variety between very challenging and very easy holes. I enjoyed the time there.

At least the greens are good

The greens are better than average condition the rest of the course not so much. Front 9 better condition than the back 9.

Went out as a single at 1220p, a 5 some let me play through at #2, and then an elderly 3 some let me play through at #6 made the turn in 1hr 15 min then the back log began, took 3 hrs to play the back 9, you can see the groups ahead not playing ready golf, I timed each of the last four holes with my phone stopwatch par 3 took 14 min, 2 par 4's took 15.5 minutes and the par 5 18th took over 22 minutes (smh)

The Sand Box

I started on the back. The Starter was great to allow me to start on the back 9. Tee one was 4 4 some deep.
Tee boxes are mostly beat up and sandy. Most of the fairways are also sand and weeds. Green side bunkers are ok but fairway bunkers are unmanaged with weeds. The silver lining is the greens are good. Balls roll true and hold on second shots. Beautiful homes and some fun elevation changes. Hope they turn it around.
