    Summary:
    I really enjoy playing this course, almost always in good shape. Tee Boxes are solid, the fairways always in good shape, but they have had problems with their greens. Fungus or some other problem, really bumpy (hoppity hop) putting a few times I was out there. I haven't played there this summer, so maybe the greens are in better shape.

    Overall a very nice course. It's well maintained and the fairways are great. The green fees are a bargain.

    Summary:
    #1 Those that fade the ball need to be careful hitting off the first tee. #2 An easy hole with plenty of fairway, but be careful on distance; I've hit my ball into water in front of the green a few times of the white tees. #3 A fun hole when the flag is set behind the big bunker on the left. #4 This short par 5 hole provides a birdie opportunity for most players. #5 This is challenging dog leg left and requires a solid drive usually against the wind to make par. #6 This par 3 is one of the easiest holes on the course; it requires an 8 or 9 iron over a large bunker or a safe play to the right side. #7 This par five is pretty tough for those that hook their tee shots. The smartest play here is a conservative approach. #8 Watch out for the bunkers to the left and right. #9 Lots of new trees planted can get you into trouble on both sides of this fairway. #10 This par 5 is one of the easiest holes. If you get into trouble of the tee you can still recover and make a birdie. #11 is my favorite hole on the course. It's a scenic dog leg right with a pond on the right and a very pleasant bunkered green: Stay below the hole here. #12 Usually requires a solid drive against a driving wind. Again, I recommend staying below the hole on the green. #13 An extra club might be a good idea if the wind is blowing into your face. #14 This is a challenging hole for a high handicapper. Keep your drive straight and long. #15 This hole may be a nightmare for a high handicapper and a joy for others. This hole is a very sharp dog leg left with a large pond on the left which dares you to drive over it. #16 This par 4 can get interesting if you hook your tee shots, so hit straight or risk making a 5 or 6. #17 This par 3 can be routine if you hit the green from the tee and stay below the hole. #18 Par 5 Again your drive will usually be into a driving wind and requires a solid tee shot. Make sure and keep your drives straight or left. The water creeps out into the fairway on the right at about 240 yards. You really need two good shots here to make a par. Your second shot will be over water and a large bunker. Stay to the right of the flag on your approach for best results. Management was having trouble with fungus or some other issue on the greens, but supposedly they have overhauled them. The fairways are perfect.

    Customer Service:
    Management does a good job.

    Nothing exciting, but who cares.
