Played here Super Bowl Sunday 2/11 as a single paired with a threesome of an older couple and a sister in law, all in their 70s from Canada down on a golf trip. They'd played here a lot and told me as a first timer that I was in for a treat and they were not kidding. The history of the course is pretty cool as it used to be private then fell into hard times but now it's back to its former glory. The layout is fairly typical for resort style courses, routing you thru homes but the backdrops of the mountains was really incredible. A perfect February day with full sunshine, minimal wind and mid 60s temps, I couldn't have asked for better conditions. The course itself looks pristine. From teebox to green I couldn't find any real blemishes. Fairways were a pleasure to hit from, rough could get a little sticky but not too penal, and the bunkers were full of fluffy sand. Truly felt like you were playing a private course. Speaking of which, the service is top notch. After I pulled into the parking lot someone came out to my car with the cart and loaded me up. Then checked in and went across the street to the grass range (which if we're being picky, didn't offer great lies) and putting green. Ordered a sandwich as the restaurant and it took longer than expected but they wound up sending someone out to deliver it to my cart on the second hole. Decided to play up to the bronze tees with the other gentleman to keep things more social and at 6000 yards it was neither short nor long. Certainly helped playing with someone with some course knowledge as there are plenty of holes where what you see is what you get but on the dogleg holes his advice certainly helped on where to aim. POP was perfect, just about 4 hours. Had a really great time and was happy to have played here. Would definitely make it a point to come back and play here or the south course next time I visit.
