Figured to get 15 holes in before dark, more if lucky. Course conditions were so-so, but acceptable considering all the rain the week before. Despite the Skylinks comments on GK in the past, the course management was horrible. By the time we teed off, it was after 1:40 (more than a half hour late). When we reached the second hole tee box, it looked like we hit the cart barn. There were two groups in front of us WAITING to tee off. It was like that the whole afternoon. We gave up after nine holes, which took us just over three hours to play! Ridiculous!
When I asked the management before we teed off why they were so behind, they gave me the excuse that they couldn't control things. Said every business is like that! So, they don't have a marshall on the course to keep things moving, they book too many tee times for their tee time schedule (I believe every 8 minuts or so), and they still allow walk-ons instead of pushing groups out or matching up people for the no-shows. It is not that complicated.
This is just another overpriced and overplayed public course that wants you to believe that it is somehow better than the munis out there. Save your money and avoid gray hairs by playing somewhere else. I will not be returning.

Played today. Fairways a bit browner than usual. Greens only in aso-so condition due to recent aerating. (When I made the tee time and asked about the condition of the greens, the pro shop had stated that aerating was no longer affecting greens play - which was incorrect.) Fast round in just over three hours. All-in-all, a good course but overpriced for what you get.
