Five hour rounds are now the norm on Mondays, the day I generally play Eagle Vines. No longer acceptable, I'll wait for the winter when play speeds up. Marshals do nothing but politely ask the groups to speed up play --if they are to be found. Too bad, this used to be the best place around--all around, but no more. By two o'clock the front nine always looks empty, guess pace of play is no secret.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
