Greens are in awfull condition. Almost unplayable. Course layout is Pete Dye and very good. Worth the $20 senior discounted price if you can stand the greens.

A unique course that is very underutilized. A lot of variety. There are some homes on the course but not really close in most cases. Just a lot of fun to play.
