If you like to hit the ball low and get a lot of roll then this course is for you. The greens were fun to play but at the same time some of the most difficult greens to read I have ever played(been playing this game for 40 years). Look forward to playing it again next time I am in the area. Having a round of experience under my belt will be a great help.

Played at the twilight rate, so it was a bargain at $40 including cart. Had plenty of time to finish as course was not crowded late i the afternoon. Course was very wet due to heavy rains for several days.

We played a scramble with players from 13 to 26 handicap indices and all of them enjoyed the round. It was quite windy and challenging.
