Fairways were so hard that ball would bounce 50+ yards. If your ball hit on any downslope it would bounce into short and then into such long ruff that you could not find your ball. As you would tee off they would be mowing in same fairway we were on 8 times. They would not go over one or would not stop while you were hitting. Mowers would come up to mow greens and sit and talk with mower running.next to you as you were putting. when we were teeing off on some holes they would cross your fairway in front of you to get to a green 2 to 3 holes away. Fairways are rutted from carts being let out on them when soft and no ranger to make people stay off to side. start mowing at daylight. give right of way. water fairways when needed.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Worse than average course for the area
Price, No Houses on Course, Pace of Play, Clubhouse
