First time playing here, I had heard that they where now open to public play. The golf shop and clubhouse are mid century and nothing really to speak of. The shop had the usual logo merchandise, some equipment and balls. The staff was friendly and help full. I played on Tuesday and the wind was blowing about 15-20 with gusts. I'll begin with the greens as that is what I mostly judge a course by. These greens are by far some of the best I have played this year they are smooth and fast (10.5-11) is my guess. They are difficult to read and require some local knowledge. Keep in mind where the hills are and where the valley is as everything breaks towards the valley. These greens are not tricked up to get breaks they appear pretty flat at first glance but you learn fast to pay attention.
The bunkers appear to have some kind of river bottom sand it is heavy but they are very playable. They fairways are a mix of poa, weeds, dichondra, and crabgrass. They are very playable but not attractive. The tee boxes are ok although some have spots that are not very level.
I played this course from the back tees with the wind blowing, I found the following! The course is longer than the card shows, the par 3s are brutal, very small greens and well protected. The par 5s are weak with the exception of 18 uphill into the wind. There is a good balance of long and shorter par 4s. All in all this is a fun course to play if you don't let the wind get into your head.
