    Played the course using a Golf Moose coupon (2 players and cart for $109). Based on the discounted price I give the course 3 stars. Fairways were dry and rough and many of the greens were in poor shape with brown patches on most all of them. The course has great potential but needs some TLC to get it back into shape.

    Pace of play was good and finished in <4 hrs.
