Rode the Blacks (3475/57.1/92) with Gil, John and Sue in 3H, 10M twilight on a GN "Hot Deal". The weather was partly cloudy and calm around 70.

Water on all 18 holes hi-lite this fun executive course design. Par 60, six short par 4's and ten par 3's. The course was in near immaculate condition for the most part.

The tees were lush but many were fairly chewed up.

Both the fairways and rough were immaculately maintained.

The sand traps were well maintained with nice, fluffy sand.

The greens were excellent. Smooth, medium fast and firm. No tiers, but many have a decent amount of slope on them. Only thing to mark them down for is the amount of pitch marks, not unexpected on a shorter course.

The customer service was limited but good. Quick efficient check-in, no drink cart. No GPS on basic carts. Good mixture of holes. The ten par 3's ranged from 105 to 175 and provided different looks. The six short par 4's were a good mix of risk/reward with lakes or OB close by if you went for them and missed. The layout was VERY comparable with Sunrise Country Club that is close by. Both are par 60 with a generous amount of water hazards. One of the better executive courses I have ever played, definitely recommended.
