This Municipal Golf Couse has had its ups and downs through the years and at this point is on its way up, but it still has a lot of work to be done.
The front side greens still have to be re-done and but are very playable. The backside greens seem to be in pretty good shape after being re-done.
Watch out for the bunkers, you may lose you ball! They have tried to bring in new sand,but it seems to be very fine and every ball hit into some of the bunkers either plug or you cant find it.
The pace of play some days may drive you nuts waiting on every hole and ending up with a 5 hour plus round.
The new pro shop and bar seem to always be very clean and the pro has a friendly face and gives you a kind word. Behind the bar these days is a very pretty face to serve you a drink. So if you have some patience, dont mind the wind and like a wide open course with a great price, Skywest is the place to play!
Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area
