Poor condition

Not a long course, but challenging. Wonderful greens - once you learn to read them.

Got a great deal on golfnow.com at the last minute (night prior). But I guess you get what you pay for. Course conditions were not that great - tee boxes weren't mowed well, the greens were very inconsistent and some were very bumpy. The layout is nothing too exciting either.

One of the worst conditioned golf courses that I have played in YEARS. Gives a bad name to "Country Club". Post round service in the restraurant was abysmal.
