Played the back nine twice on a recent vacation. Had seen the pictures and ads in golf magazines over the many years, and overall it didn't disappoint. Took my daughter to play (her first round on a course) and we took advantage of the juniors play free.
It was very hot (95-100 plus humidity), so we only made it through nine holes, but they were nice enough to give us a rain check for 9 on a different day. Came back two days later and still wicked hot, but my daughter had a true par 3 on the15th with a shot over the water and two putts! We followed advice from our golf pro friend to start from the 150 yard for par 4, 200 yard for par 5, and the red tee (or drop zone) for the par 3.
The staff was great and extremely nice, helpful, and accommodating to a Dad and his junior golfer. They truly made it easy to play and have an enjoyable time (both days).
The course was in good shape, but there was some maintenance going on (de-thatching in process). The bunkers had some junk in them (pine branches) and the sand was a little thinner than I expected (I hit out of one and it looked like I was into a base), and some hadn't been raked well by earlier players (not the fault of the course). Overall, though, I was pleased with the condition of everything. The greens ran true and we made some good putts!
