Golf Playing Conditions 7.73 GREAT
Golf Playing Conditions 7.73 GREAT
Played 1-6-18 first out as a single playing in a little under 2 1/2 hours. With nobody in front of me, nobody behind me, and no maintenance people around it felt like I had my own private golf course. Course conditions haven’t changed much since last time I played here. Rough my have been cut down a little lower, and greens were a little softer, but everything else was in the same good shape.

Played 5/26.. first out, a real treat; course in very good shape, all the rains really helped.

Golf Playing Conditions 7.51 GREAT
Golf Playing Conditions 7.51 GREAT

greens are tricky to read, especially anything coming in from the sides towards the hole, play more break than your eyes see, if you miss, keep everything under the hole if possible, chipping, pitching from the sides is challenging, greens are bigger than they look, and being closer to the ocean, the ball does not carry like it does inland, a club longer on some approach shots is a good choice, especially since many greens slope pretty good from front to back, with some false fronts to deal with ..open to the public, but, call ahead; lots of member groups, outings etc. just to be on the safe side…owned by the same gentlemen who bought La Purisima, a good choice to play, if in the area, stay healthy, drive safely,

Today, we continue to develop and manage a broad range of private clubsgolf resortspublic golf courses and municipal golf courses, and we have expanded our management expertise to include conference centerslodging operations and recreational facilities.
