Nice facility with excellent employees that are always polite and willing to help with almost any issue.
I love the range and practice greens and the short game practice area is excellent.

The golf courses (Fazio and Club)have had a lot of damage from the weather and have been closed on and off and needed temporary greens for extended periods. To their credit, the course caretaker and local management have worked tirelessly to fix these issues.

They schedule WAY too many tournaments on the Fazio course. When the weather warms, expect minimum 2-3 tournaments weekly. Getting a tee time at a descent hour is close to impossible.

I don't think they have a limit on the number of members they allow to join and since it is run by the publicly traded Club Corp, they're more interested in adding members and short term revenue generation than keeping current members happy.
In spite of numerous problems with the course and unlimited tournaments resulting in minimal tee times for members, they are completely unwilling to consider giving partial refunds of monthly dues.
Also, some new members are offered "under 40" discount rates but it's unclear how they decide who is eligible. Also, they give the impression that the dues are standardized and are the same for each member. However, this is just a sales technique used to test the water. In the end, the process is handled more like a nickel and dime car dealership when it comes to membership rates.
