This course is a challenge for me to play. It's close by to the time share that we have and so I've played it a number of times. There are some holes that are very tricky for me. The bunker sand could be a higher quality. The carts are propane and very noisy. Your first challenge is on the first green that is very undulating and tough to read for your first opportunity to put. More often than not I score a 7 on the first hole because of lack of practice on the type of greens and surface. I'll definitely play it again to try to overcome these challenges. There is a good restaurant to have lunch at with good food and drinks and service. A lot of new house construction is being done on this course.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
