This was the first time I played this course (the second for my husband). There were some soggy spots, but the course was in decent shape overall. Very fast greens which took a little getting used to. The staff was very serious about keeping people on pace, which I appreciated. Two groups in front of us were playing very slow so the ranger was on top of everyone to be sure they were keeping up. They eventually forced the group in front of us to skip a hole so that everyone got back on pace. Beautiful course.

It's a tough track with many elevated tees and greens. The fairways and greens were in great shape and they do a nice job keeping it up. The staff throughout the organization is very friendly and helpful I would highly recommend this course and it should be a must play if you are in the area.
