We played for free, they were trying to get interest in the course. Some of the greens were bad and to make matters worse they had a couple of greens where there was good grass on part of the green but they chose to put the pin in a beat up area, thats just dumb. Course needs senior tees if they want to get senior play during the week. To many forced carries on tee shots. Also they need some new marketing direction, hint for seniors 14 holes with water is not a big selling point. This course, Los Rios and the late Shores are a lot alike. Over priced and tricked up. Not senior friendly for length and forced carryies.
