Very enjoyable layout with a couple of big 'cautions':
1)During last summer's drought, the course ponds went stone dry, leaving the grass extremely vulnerable. I have NOT been back since the worst of it, though, so it's possible that it somehow survived and will thrive... But I'd have wagered at the time that in the dead-or-just-thirsty question, the former was far more likely. Looked to my very untrained eyes that they were going to have vast expanses of dirt.
2) Several extremely well-placed bunkers that appear on the card are grass bunkers in real life. I haven't had the chance to ask Mr. Liddy if that's a recent change or whether they were nver sanded in the first place, but it's disappointing to look at an area that was clearly meant to provide a strong disincentive and see that with the rough cut short it's actually a prime spot to be.
But it's a fun course with some good movement in the land and artfully bold features. As for the housing - there is indeed a lot of it, but it only irritates as a visual element; I don't recall anywhere that it actually impinges on anywhere you'd want to hit it.
