Some greens are dead and no cart path

Good course but no cart path on some holes and we’re asking for 90 degree to ball.. some greens were dead. To pricy for ok course.

SLOW

Made the mistake of playing on holiday weekend-5 1/4 hours. The 2 groups ahead of us playing from blue tees, and taking 2 or 3 shots to get past the forward tee blocks. No Marshall's on the course for entire round.
Never play here on a weekend or BYOB.
Huge areas of dormant/dead grass on fairways and around greens from? misapplied chemicals.

Great Round

Staff was friendly, Course was in great shape. Biggest improvement was the attitude and friendliness of the course marshals, quite often before we would be met at the first tee box by an overzealous somewhat power hungry marshal that was trying to be intimidating before we had pulled our driver out. Absolutely was a detriment to an otherwise great experience. Hats off to management for bringing onboard new Marshalls that are good representatives of an excellent course.

Most flags do not have gps so you can’t get the yardage with a Bushnell which is very frustrating

Only issue I have is not all the pins have gps on them so I can’t get my yardages with my Bushnell. Quite frustrating as going long can be so unforgiving

Have always loved the layout, and enjoyed playing here. Always a challenge, and so much nature to please the sole, and soften the Madre grabbing your balls.?Course not in as good condition as pre Covid, Greens are a bit slower but nice for the most part. Will always come back for more!

This course is so picturesque! It’s well designed and well maintained. The bonus was a great lunch at Divots. All around great atmosphere. And I got a birdie. Fun!

If you’re only going to play one round in the area , make it this course! Great layout, best tees and fairways in the area! Only bit of a downfall was the furry greens, probably a 6 on stimp, but they are all alive and green in January!
