Great pace of play!
There’s a couple of areas that they are actively trying to recover. But overall would play this place again!
Nice course
Greens and fairways were in good shape, Nice course
Pretty good shape. Great value
Besides the first green being temporary, the greens and the course were in good shape. I like the layout. White tees are like 6000 yards. Shorter par 3s. Over all I’d play here again.
Great condition, but no Marshal
Course is in really good condition given the recent rain, pace of play was horrible though. No starter or marshal present on a busy Saturday to help regulate pace of play. 5 hours for a 2 some, teed off at noon. I will play here again but would advise budgeting for a 5 hour round of golf regardless of group size if playing on the weekend when the weather is nice.
Excellent Course
We played The Champions and Traditions courses today and they were in decent shape for the end of winter, although the greens were not in the greatest shape, a lot of bumps and holes/plugs/ballmarks that need to be repaired. I suspect that in the next month or so they will be in great shape.
Good Winter Conditions, friendly staff
Staff was friendly offered my to go out early. Driving range was grass although a bit beaten up but still decent. Course layout is really challenging, fairways and greens good for this time of year. Only issue with condition was some of the bunkers had not been racked leaving large footprints and uneven surfaces, also many leaves. Bit those were minor issues really. Lots of sand in the bunkers which is nice. Great value.
Good winter conditions
Course overall was in good shape. Dormant bermuda was fine. The two different nines had vastly different bentgrass greens though. Masters was slow and green and sticky. Traditions were browner, faster, and harder. Odd. Pace was good for a cool Sunday afternoon.
One issue the course seems to be having. Without Marshals, people are making their own decisions on which nines they want to play. I played my front 9 (Masters) and when I made the turn to back 9 (Traditions) there were 2 groups on #10 tee. People are not following the suggested and expected routing.
This is a good winter course. Challenging enough. They just need to make sure people are following the correct routing.
Two down one to go
Nice course layout, elevated greens. Many leaves on the fairways, but it is winter! I will definitely play this course again and look forward to trying The Lakes. That will complete the three courses offered here. Very nice place to play.
Great course
Great course for the price. Carts are new and clean. It’s a 27 hole track so the next time I play it it could be like getting to play a new course. Love that concept
Great course, fast play
Great fun course. Driver off everything but par threes. Nice and open but water to make you play strategically over creeks and ponds. Really fun and will be playing more often to get in quick 18 holes
Disappointing
I’ve played here before and liked it, but it’s been awhile. However, was really disappointed, primarily due to greens. In awful shape. A lot of mowed down weeds on the greens, rolled very poorly. Too bad, it’s a nice layout
Greens need some work
Rough greens and slow play made the overall day only average for us. The track is decent and the clubhouse is very nice.
