Went on a Sunday mid-morning. Playing in a foursome. Supposed to start about 10, didn't get to the 1st tee box until 10:15-10:20 because threesome was waiting on someone who never showed. Followed be 2 separate twosomes. By 11:30, we are at the tee box on hole 6, when the marshal comes around and says we need to pick up the pace because we are holding up the groups behind us. No kidding, put a foursome in front of 2 twosomes, don't get anyone started on time, things are going to get backed up. We finished our round by 2:30, 4:10 minutes for 18 holes, not a bad pace most places, but could not enjoy any of it since I had to constantly worry about how fast we were playing. Will not be going back there in the foreseeable future.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Any price would be too much for this courses
