There are other courses in the area that are cheaper and better. The greens had been punched about 3 weeks before we played and were hard and still a litle bumpy (no warning from the pro shop). The day we played half of the pins were placed 6 feet or less from the edges of the greens. There are blind shots on this course to some of the fairways and into some of the greens. "Local knowledge" would have been helpfull. The course is laid out in a private gated community and there are long distances between many of the holes. Pace of play is slow - 5 hour round on a weekday! The course is short and good golfers should play the black tees. If you are a 7 or better, play the gold tees.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Better courses for less nearby, Worse than average course for the area
