I wish I could give this place a 2.5, but that's not an option. As far as the technical discing…read moregoes, this place gets a 2. In terms of natural beauty it would be a 4. The major kicker is that it's only a 9 hole course. Anytime you have to play a course twice to hit 18 holes, it's just not the same. Similar to Sims, you've got shots right along the lake, with hole #4 potentially a dangerous shot away from landing on the beach. The course has some elevation changes, though it doesn't utilize it the max. It can be quite windy, but a good singles score is 6-10 down on 18 holes with the longest hole being ~400 feet.
