| Short course and takes a long time to play. Last 2xs took over 5 hours!! The rangers are rude and have no idea how to keep play moving. There are too many other courses in the area that are much better and in the same price range. |

| LOVE THIS COURSE. Tought to play Sunday mornings due to perm tee times. Course is short for long hitters from the white tees, but have 3 sets of men_s tees. If you stay close to the fairway you can score. Greens run true and are normally quick. |

| I_m so glad this course is in my backyard! Every shot here requires at least a chin scratch and discipline, greens are relatively firm even when wet. If you want to spray_em, stay away from this one, but if you want a course that will test you, this is the one. -- watch out for #5 ;) |

| Smart golf 101. Keep your Driver in the bag and you_ll find the easy way to the greens. Sand bunkers and tall fescue strategically placed to make sure your offline shots find the beach or deep stuff. Take the penalty when in the fescue or bring some pain medication for your wrists. Most fescue shots average 1 yard or less. The green on 14 slopes to the 15th teebox as does the grain of the grass, so when hitting your putts you may see some putts screaming by the hole. Again.. play the angles, don_t hit long (hit a target)on a lot of holes, and you_ll beat outplay your competition. |

| Really nice course. Variety of tee choices. A couple short par 4_s are tempting on the right tee box_s with the wind. Well manicured in good shape especially when they_ve had enough rain. If you can_t keep your drive in the fairway bring plenty of golf balls. They_ve go wild grasses just off the rough. Can be a little hard to find and don_t forget the bug spray. |
