The good...The coarse and scenery are pretty.the staff are very nice and friendly and you can tell they're trying to make sure you enjoy your round of golf.The bad...Cart path only.And this is strictly inforced.Rough is deep around some of the Green's and along fairways.Water issues in certain areas.The ugly... Coarse design and layout.Several holes are stacked on top of each other.As soon as you tee off at #1 it will soon become apparent once you get to the green.#2 tee box will be just to the right of the #1 green and anyone in that tee box will be hitting back at you.The conclusion.. Would I play it again??Yes... Even though the layout is the worst aspect of the coarse,I understand it's a older design.It would be hard if not impossible to change it now.Cart path only might not be a good thing for a lot of golfer's but I don't mind.Just make sure you don't get in the line of fire from another group teeing off at another tee box near you.(yes, it's that tight on at least one hole).. The main reason I would play again is the staff.They we're really nice and friendly.All golf courses have issues but not all have people working at them that try to make you feel welcome ..
