Poor management, we got to our 4th hole and ran into a log jam, 4 - 2 somes in front of us, should of paired up some of those groups, no rangers to be found, had another 2 some go around us while waiting to tee off, called clubhouse and they said they would send someone out, never saw anyone. When we confronted 2 some they said that is how it's done there, they do it all the time, nothing ever said, course in bad shape, felt like we was out in a field, bunkers non existent, no sand or rock hard. Worse course played all year.

Definitely not a fan of this course. Tee boxes are so beat up and they are every time I'm there, divots GALORE on every green, rough is extremely tall, course management is just non existent. Its a great layout and its fun but, its just not taken care of at all. The staff that works there are friendly and very nice people. The course itself just needs A LOT of work to be worth going to.
