Painted Mountain is a good layout, fun to play, and is in good shape for the most part, but they have got to get a ranger out there to speed up the pace of play -- it is ridiculously slow, at least it has been every time I've played it -- and there is really no excuse for it, the course is not that long. The only other negative about this course is the lack of a driving range.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
