I finally got to check off this course over the weekend. We participated in a work tournament with an 8 AM shotgun start on Saturday. The carts were staged nicely, and the TrackMan driving range was a great addition to help us warm up before the round. I didn’t encounter any staff, as it was quite chaotic, which is typical for a construction company golf tournament.

Regarding the course itself, I felt it should have been in better condition, considering the price they charge. The fairways were starting to brown out, which isn't unusual in summer, but there were many areas with insufficient grass. This issue also affected the rough. For a course with a rack rate nearing $200, I expected it to be in better shape. I have driven by this course many times, and it always looked green; however, it didn’t have the same appeal when I finally played it. The tee boxes were level but quite worn with many having severe divot issues. The sand traps were okay, with one having very little sand and another having plenty. Many low areas on the course were very wet, including some sand traps. I slipped a few times on the fairways that sloped up to the front of the greens. Although those areas had the best coverage, one misstep could send you tumbling.

The highlight of the day was the greens. They were immaculate, rolling smoothly, fast, and very receptive to all shots—it was a pleasure to play on them.

Overall, the back nine is the superior nine, but the front nine is also enjoyable. The carts were equipped with GPS, and the cart girl came around often. I’m glad I played here, but I was hoping for slightly better conditions. If you can find a deal, it’s worth playing, but at full rack rate, I would wait for improved fairway conditions.
