7/2 pleasant day with enough breeze to keep it pleasant. Used underpar voucher $66 2some easy friendly check in with a "you are good to go" got the cart loaded and on the way to the range saw that 1st tee was open with no starter and no one apparently waiting so off we went with another single that had the same idea. About 20 minutes out did see another single behind us who had no interest in joining up and further back there was a womens outing of maybe 10 4somes.
Fairways and rough kick-you as the word of the day--good lies for the most part but not much roll and anywhere in the rough was dead stop with some challenge going forward. Even areas in front of the green prevented bounce ups and short stayed short.
Tees had ok cover some a little thin and many had some slope/slant or uneven footing.
Bunkers were freshly groomed and had fine but compacted sand--no rakes but not a lot of foot prints.
Greens have a really healthy look medium to medium fast speed with subtleties that overall made for a long putting day. With many green constructed into the hillsides topography is always an issue as well as the general slope. Most do not have a lot of contour with the exception of #12 that beast of a par 5 that bends left at 90 degrees and climbs steadily upward to plateau with a sloped green and a dime sized area top left that is further elevated another 3 feet--where the flag was today--miss a little short and you have a 40 foot putt and the possible opportunity to try the putt again if you only hit the 1st one 36 feet.
Course layout has some quirks many doglegs and uneven lies along with lots of elevation changes. Players who can hit long and straight hit with amplitude and can flight their shots to specific yardage miss out on struggles we encountered. Still fun every once in a while and course conditions made for a worthwhile outing. POP front about 2 with brief waits and 220 for the back with waiting on every shot as the field caught up to the early starters.

played here a couple of times in the last week, conditions remain solid. Fairways have ok cover and despite being thin in some areas there is still good cushion as the sub-soil is moist enough to allow for good divots(as a reminder take the time to fill them as bottles are now provided). Rough is thick enough to slow the ball and challenging around the greens. Bunkers appear to be groomed daily but without rakes the foot prints take over. Tees are in good shape.
Greens remain one of the best features with opportunities for challenging pin placements with slope and contours as well. Receptive to well struck shots while rolling at medium fast speeds. Some appear to have been more closely cut so pitch marks are more apparent.
Staff members are friendly and golfer oriented. POP runs about 4.

6/25 guru outing with Johnny, David and Mike very enjoyable time on a nice day and an overall nice course. Not much to add to all the previous reviews from the outing. Enjoyed the condition of the fairways as to the lies provided even if it meant sacrificing some distance. Rough mostly shortish and not thick except for some pockets still short but grabby. Tees ok. Bunkers have good sand and appear to be groomed daily but showed the effects of traffic by mid day.
Greens rolled medium speed and were generally smooth.
Check in was easy and friendly. Layout gives good variety of holes. Due to the rolling nature of the course expect quite a few uneven stances.

6/17 wanted to get in a round with 18 holes open in between construction closures. Course will be front only starting 6/22 as the tunnel refurb will start and the laying of new irrigation piping will begin on the back. Fairways had ok cover but some were showing the lack of water due to the pipe project. Rough varied from thin to difficult, never too long but some places the ball would sink down enough affect the outcome. Tees often have some slope but otherwise ok. Bunkers appear recently groomed so ok early in day.
Greens not as smooth as usual. Speeds seemed to vary as they are hand watering.
Friendly staff. Current project is quite an undertaking so expect continued disruption. The work that has been completed shows a lot of attention to detail so when done and healed from the excavation it looks to have some potential.

6/12 meet up for GK match with Johnny joined by Matt and Andrew for a rollicking good time. Thank you to the GM Tom for the invite. Pretty comfortable 415 POP which for some reason felt slower on the back but nice day nice course and entertaining companions so no complaints.
Friendly welcome from all staff. Course is almost back to pre-covid status with rake-less bunkers and no drinking water on the course as the last reminders.
Fairways are in almost goldylocks condition firm enough for some extra roll while still providing good cushion. Ideal for iron shots but often challenging for fairway metals. Staff has been making the rounds filling divots as carts had been sans bottles until today.
Rough along fairways acts mostly as an impediment to forward progress while being playable for shots. However areas further away especially on the hillsides and behind and off to the sides of the greens can often be longer more wirery and challenging.
Did not myself find any bunkers but by observation most have soft thick deep sand that retains footprints. We played smooth and place but still the condition often kept the ball in some awkward areas of the traps.
Tees lush and level with the markers often covering the full width of the tee box.
Greens mostly receptive to well struck shots while being firm enough to allow the chips to roll out nicely. Rolling consistently at medium fast speed, mostly smooth with a few un-repaired ball marks Greens are on the larger side with slope contour and topography to consider. Really enjoy the 6 zones for pin placement which increases the entertainment value.
Good layout and even with houses nearby there is a remote feel to the course as there is an abundance of natural habitat.
