Since its re-design several years ago, this new par 73 course has matured into an excellent 18 hole venue. Natural water hazards can catch you out with streams and a pond coming into play no fewer than 15 times in your round ? maybe more for some! And the many new plantations around the course are becoming established, creating more problems for an erratic shot.
