Played today. Course has dried out very well since last week with only a few bad spots. The middle of 18 fairway is still a problem. All fairways, tees and greens have been cleaned. Tee boxes all good. Fairways all in decent shape with great lies and fair roll out. Traps were all playable. Greens are in the best shape I have ever seen them. Customer service excellent at all levels.

Played today and an update from mine and what t8fish have already posted. Course is drying out just in time for the next round of rain. Course conditons today were very good. But they did sand the greens today in anticipation for the upcoming rains.

A little late and lazy, I'm pointing at 24hourgolf's 1/14 review as a start and adding a little, based on my 12:00 round of Friday, 1/26. In addition to his observations, the overall quality of the lies both on the tees and in the fairways stood out to me as nicer than I've seen in a while. There are exceptions, like the lead up to the green on the par-5 6th is always sketchy but, overall very nice. The exception to otherwise nice teeing grounds was the whites on the par-3 13th, which was basically a sidehill lie. We teed up out to the box on a flat section. I booked as a single and was paired with a trio of attorneys who were good company as a group. It was also a rare day in that we never had anyone in front of us. Not particularly quick as a group, the group behind was even slower so we were never pressed and usually had empty space behind us too — although heaven help the backlog behind them. A shorter course, I usually play the blues, but given the threesome was playing white, I went along with it and enjoyed the slight difference as a change of pace. Nice conditions and always friendly service. Recommended.

Played today. Course has dried out nicely with recent sunny and windy days. Tee boxes all in good shape. Fairways dry and firm with roll out. Traps were clean and playable. Rough playable. Greens are just great. Firm but hold and release shots. And have good speed. Excellent customer service from Dillon and Julia in the shop.

Played yesterday afternoon. A little to cold to play early AM. IMO course is not in good shape at the moment since the recent rains. It appears maintenance has not been able to get after the course. They said it would happen today hopefully. The fairways are still a little rough with high grass, some wet areas that have not completely dried out. You get some good lies, some muddy lies and some unplayable lies as of yesterday. And you get no roll out. Tee boxes were good but need moving as they are getting chewed up. Traps were so so but need work. Greens were the highlight. Hold high shots, release shots and but are firm and will send errant shots off the green. But they have good speed and especially from above the hole. Great customer service from Stu in the shop. And be advised that rates have gone up since Jan 1st. I won't rate today as it would be unfair to do so. But if they can mow and trim today/tomorrow I think the course should be in good playing condition with the winds drying it out and sunny skies predicted this week.

Played this AM. Course is still soggy from the rains. Funny I did not feel it rained that much here in the area. While the fairways are still damp little to no roll out. You might even get a plugged one occasionally. They also have not been mowed lately and the rough is not manageable. Tee boxes are all playable. And surprisingly the traps are also. Greens are fine and chip and putt with good speed of about 8/9. Excellent customer service from Dillon and Julia as usual and from Rich who runs the cart area. And Troon is raising prices beginning Jan 1. But not for Seniors. Merry Christmas / Happy New Year and wishing great golf for 24 to all GK and new GK members.

Being busy this past week I wanted to get in some golf today so took a chance on a mid morning round. Turned out OK. Had a small group in front of me but they were playing a best ball amongst themselves and it helped move things along. POP was 4:15. Course is IMO going into winter mode at present. I did not feel the fairways were as good as they have been recently. Many of the tee boxes need to have the markers moved as some are getting beat up. Very little rough to speak of and what is there was playable. No bunkers from anyone so all I can say is they looked poorly raked from lots of early play but other than that they appeared good. Greens were in good shape but many unrepaired divots from the group in front of us. Customer service in the shop from Dillon was excellent as usual. And the weather was spectacular and found out later we are expecting rain next week. So my decision was a sound one. BTW Troon is raising the rates here effective Jan 1 2024.

Played yesterday AM. Not much to add to previous post other than the traps were clean and playable for us and heard no complaints. Nick the greenskeeper has the greens in great shape. Too bad we are losing him to Montebello Top Golf shortly. Hope Troon has a good replacement in mind. And Oscar who is in the maintenance team is always fun to talk with as he goes about setting up the tee boxes and pins on Sunday. Always great customer service on Thursdays and Sundays from Dillon and Julia in the shop and Rich who takes care of the cart barn. I also recommend.

A quick summary: I got out as single joining another single at 12 noon on Friday 12/1. Weather -wise it was about as perfect for a round as can be expected — sunny, cool but not brisk until late in the round, and barely any wind all day. This is a shorter course with a flat front one and a rolling back nine. They pay attention to the conditions here and they are consistently good all around with few lapses. This applied on the day and the greens were about as good as they get here. They were clean, reasonable quick and accepted shots and divots. Otherwise, fairway lies were good, rough was mostly green and playable, chipping conditions were good. I missed all the bunkers so no feedback there. Recommended for a relaxed round.
