I too played Hacienda last week and was disappointed in the condition. The roughs were wet and deep, fairways were threadbare and the greens deathly slow. Played Havana on Thursday (Kenya/Hemingway) and was astounded that either one of these nines were open for play, especially not being cart path only the entire 18 holes. On some holes, it was nearly impossible to retrieve your golf ball from the middle of the fairway due to muck 4"-6" deep. There were ruts from cart and mower tracks everywhere. Do the course superintendents and course managers not realize how much damage they are doing to these courses? If they are that wet, the course should be closed!
