You can tell that this place was destroyed completely when a storm came through. It is obvious that they have been working very hard to put it back together and are still working. Great job so far. It is very fun. Good luck with the rest.

pleasantly surprised! Better than what the negative reviews were saying about the course. Nice T pads & good signage. Can be difficult to navigate. Not too much brush post hurricane.

Very fun layout. Well kept. Shot variety is better than average. I’m sure it can have a very good tournament layout.
