Course in fair enough shape today. Greens are very wet. They spread ammonia sulfate (?; white granules that green up your lawn!) on all the greens and therefore soaked all the greens. but, only really affected putting on a few holes. on #5 par three the regular blue tees are being resodded as is the tee box on #16. good pace of play. staff was polite and accomodating (i was a single, got me out in no time with another single). fairways were cut tight. we played in under four hours.

It's too bad some have mentioned having a hard time with customer service at this course. I've never encountered a problem. I play the course at least twice a month (creek card holder). Everyone ha... Continue »

It's too bad some have mentioned having a hard time with customer service at this course. I've never encountered a problem. I play the course at least twice a month (creek card holder). Everyone has always been courteous. We played today under awesome blue skies with crystal clear vistas of the surrounding hills and snowcapped mountains. At many spots, it was like looking at a fake backdrop. Course is in decent shape. It was cart path only due to wet conditions, but it was so hot today (mid 80s) and windy the course dried out and the marshall politely advised us halfway through our round that we could drive on the fairways. That helped speed things up considerably. Fairways were a little long on some holes (#1 through 4; 6 and 8) but the whole back nine the fairways were freshly cut. There were lots of maintanence workers mowing (probably the first mow since the rain last week). Greens were a little hit and miss. #9 green had a bunch of dead spots, but other areas of the green were nice. Many of the greens had spots from healing ball marks. But, overall, they weren't horrific. Tee boxes were a little beat up, especially on the par threes. On #16, back tee boxes are closed for major healing so it only played 135 yards from a tee box that would be better described as a patch of dirt. Bunkers could use some machine grooming. But, considering it'd rained two inches there just three days ago, conditions were just fine. And, we saw the cart girl three times, which is good. And, no, I don't work at the course!

Played 1/1/06 between rain storms - cart path only. Previous posters were not far off about the customer service. Cart girls were frequent enough. No GPS on carts but there were enough sprinklers w... Continue »

Played 1/1/06 between rain storms - cart path only. Previous posters were not far off about the customer service. Cart girls were frequent enough. No GPS on carts but there were enough sprinklers with yardage marked. Decent track but back nine is tighter. Course maintenance was good given the recent rains. Not a great value but I'll play again with a discount.

I should have known not to give this course a second chance. The conditions were good, however the customer service is the worst I have ever experienced. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish my round due... Continue »

I should have known not to give this course a second chance. The conditions were good, however the customer service is the worst I have ever experienced. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish my round due to a neck injury. When I asked for a rain check the Pro (hardly professional though) said not on a day like today ( it wasn't raining). He suggested I could play the front nine again. He didn't seem to care that I couldn't play anymore holes. Whatever! Avoid this course at all costs if you want anything that resembles customer service. There are plenty of other courses that appreciate your patronage. I've played here at least 5 times and it is consistently bad.

Thought the course was well kept and played extremely well. Can't wait to come back and play again.

I called to ask about the course condition and was told it was great. When we arrived the greens were sanded. There was one cart girl for the entire 18. We saw her on the first hole and after teeing off on 18. If you like very poor customer service (sanded greens (12/20/05) after calling to ask about the conditions, poor cart service and $4.00 8oz coffee this is the place. Great course especially for the single digit handicaps but don't expect a high level of customer service.

Course was soggy from watering and overseeding but the layout was tremendous. I'd like to play it when the fairways weren't so shaggy and wet. Carts on path slowed the pace of play.
