Love this course. I'm playing it more and more. The bermuda greens are impeccable. I don't know why more courses in this area don't go to bermuda.

There is a big difference between the newer back nine and the older front nine. The front nine is very short and is severely squeezed into the property. The back nine is a real challenging course - a tough par 35. The greens are always in great shape on both nines. It is a great place for locals like me who belong to another club to come out to practice and walk a few holes. The people who play here are very courteous about inviting people to play through. Overall, it just has a nice feeling about it.
