Beautiful golf course. Excellent condition. Greens were quick and undulating. Worth it!
Tip… beware of all the water. The course played a bit firmer than I expected and resulted in a lot of rollout towards water hazards.

As a wedding photographer I must say this place is just such a beautiful breath taking Venue I did a wedding gig here some time back and I gotta say this was one of the nicest I’ve done. The ballroom was great. The view of the golf course and everything just absolutely amazing. S
