I don't mind uphill, downhill, sidehill lies, but, this course has hardly any flat lies. Every hole is either uphill, downhill, or a combination of both. There are some parallel fairways where you are in danger. Don't play in winter. Good grass areas are few and far between. Without overseeding your ball will roll into a poor lie, fairway or rough, most of the time. The greens are OK, but, there are some very silly pin position possibilities. Almost the entire front half of one green is a false front. When putting from the upper to lower level on another green it is almost impossible to keep it on the lower level.
