Green aeration

Didn’t notice the green punched when I booked the tee time.
April fools day four sum played it was a strong wind and the temperature was down.
The weather to play golf was not good .
Thought that it would be needed at least two more weeks to recover the normal green conditions. That’s why
we were able to finish 18 holes in 4 and half hours not more than 5 hours.

Ripe conditions

Man!!! This course is so often in great condition. Greens roll so true and the right amount of hold on approach shots. Staff did a great job checking everyone in and getting groups out as timely as they could. Practice facilities are top notch too! The local pro: Jae Whang is full of great info and communicates so well!

DONT GOLF HERE.. unless you like 6 hour rounds

Played 12 holes in 4 hours then had to call it quits. They stack tee times like no other, expect 2-3 groups on each hole. Dudes in pro shop seem to hate their jobs, they take your money and thats it. Starter barely looked up. All the marshall did was ask groups to tee off into the group in front on par 3s which i just dont think works at this course. He said “its not my fault” after we asked about slow play. overbooking certainly caused slow play. Only chill worker out here was cart girl.
The real bummer is that the course is in good shape and has a fun layout. otherwise, the whole experience is pretty whack

Take your money elsewhere.

Tee time started 20 minutes late. Bad news when you’re backed up on the 1st box. From there we proceeded to wait 10-20 minutes at every hole. 7 hour round.

Course looked great and played fair.

Please, do not go. They will take your $80 and space you out every 5 minutes. Incredibly greedy course.
