Beautiful course

Course itself was in great condition. Fairly open fairways, but enough hazards to keep it challenging. Personally I only had two issues.
1. The kid working the club house desk wasn't very polite, told me the rest of my foursome hadn't checked in, even though they were on the 1st tee, and I had to get his attention from the back office because he was so involved on his phone, he didn't even notice I walked in.
2. Price. It is a beautiful course, however, it's not a $90 (nor.al rate) a round course. I've played courses just as nice for half the price. Only reason I went was the twighlight rate was reasonable at $55 a round.

Great public course

Not high on amenities - range or clubhouse. But the course is in great shape, greens were excellent. We will revisit - may be the best value at the beach.

Nice, well maintained course. Bring bug spray

After booking tee time and waiting to check in, was told we may not be able to get you out. They did anyway. Slow pace in front of us and even though there was a Marshall, nothing was said turning the round into about five hours. Beautiful course and were working on it while we played. It was pretty packed with golfers but things all worked out and was a good day. Wanted to get food after in the clubhouse. Waited for about fifteen minutes and no service. May have been just an off day.
