Do Not Recall (cart included), played on Sunday, May 2009 at 6am
To be fair, I have not played there in a while. it is a great beginner's course or neighborhood course if you don't feel like driving anywhere. But overall, very bland course in decent condition but nothing special but they charge as if it is a little more special than it is. Always played slow unless I got the first tee time in the morning. Very nice heated, lighted driving range.
