Great Course
Greens were really fast, caught me off guard. There are several drainage ditches or creeks before the greens that aren't shown on the score card. I hit a ball in one on hole #2 because they aren't labeled.

One issue
Unfortunately we were interrupted on 17 and 18 hole by students cutting through the course to go to football game. They walked right in front of us on 17 and picked up our ball that was on the green. It continued going to 18th. There’s a path from the road that students were using to cut through to football field. Yelling and giving no consideration to the golfers.

Sloooooowww!!
We bought the Group Golfer coupon found that the course was booked for the last 2 weekends and forced us to take vacation to play as coupon expires Nov. 1. The pace of play was just awful by the 2nd hole there was 4 groups on one hole?? Took 2hr 45min to play the front nine. We quit after that since there was no one from the course pushing the pace of play. There are too many options to play, so this was the last time we will ever play this course!
