Got together with some No Cal friends on a Friday morning 10:30 and 10:37 tee times. When we arrived at the course, the sun was out and thought it was going to be beautiful but the fog rolled in and made it pretty cold. Used a $49 for 2 Golf Moose voucher. Check in was easy enough and we loaded the carts and off we went. Having never played here, the starter drove us to the tee and gave us a brief overview. This really helped so nice job. 90 degree rules which was great

Fairways were generous and surprisingly in pretty good shape despite the winter weather. Wide fairways with good lies helped with some of my friends who don’t play a lot. Was only one bunker and it was fine and I heard of no complaints from the others. The rough was lush green but not difficult to get out of. Greens were pretty nice. Not real fast but rolled nicely.

I really enjoyed playing here. The fairways wind through Sun City homes, through some marsh areas and there are a couple of neat holes. Even though the fairways are generous, there are some bunkers strategically placed in the middle so some thought off of the tee is needed. I wouldn’t call this course easy as my friend did but it is a fun layout. The only drawback on this day was the cold weather but want to come back and play again. Really nice folks in the restaurant and the food was good as well as we stopped in after to have a bite.
