Good course for a beginner except for some forced carries over water

My wife is a beginner golfer and she found the forced carries over water daunting. Also that there was no 9 hole option for play. She was done by about the 13 th hole so she just walked the rest of the way in.
I found it great for practicing my short game Would have rated it as a 5 except for those few issues for the beginner golfer.
Would play it again

It is a beautiful par three course, short enough for us older people to walk and get exercise and hole distances that are reachable. Just what we were looking for. Would have loved to see the restaurant open.

Good day for golf

This par 3 is in good shape. The greens were fairly receptive and the putts rolled true. Quite a few water hazards lurking around. Overall a good course at a fair price.
