Played 9 holes with the wife this afternoon. My 2nd time playing here. POP was good, we walked 9 in less than 1.5H in clear, calm conditions around 85 degrees. Shorter par 3 course where the holes average less than 120 yards. However, the difficulty factor goes up with some of the fairly severe, small greens. Flat, easy course to walk. On 1st glance the tees overall were poor, fairly chewed up, which you would expect for a short par 3 course. You could tell the tee markers had not been rotated often enough and there was no divot mix available to repair the divots. However, by moving around, level stances and lush spots could be found to hit from. The fairways and rough do not really come into play that much on a par 3 course. The fairways were fairly lush. the rough was thinner but had okay coverage, more hit and miss the farther you got from the fairways. The sand traps need to be avoided because evidently no one who plays here realizes that the rakes are not ornaments merely decorating the course. I was in 2, and both times was in one of the dozens and dozens of unraked footprints. The greens were surprisingly good. Medium speed, held approach shots well and rolled fairly smooth. Not as many ball marks as I would expect for a short par 3 course. While it's technically only a 9 hole course, they have alternative tees that would give you a different look at the greens for the 2nd 9 if you play 18. $12 to walk wasn't bad for a Sunday afternoon. Could have played 18 for that price, but planned on 9 going in and that was enough for the wife. The customer service was good, quick, efficient check in. While the conditions overall were not great, they were better than expected. Left a better impression on me the 2nd time around. Recommended if you would like to practice your short game on an actual course. If so, this isn't a bad place to do it.
