The walking is a bit tougher. I have issues with my back and foot and only intended to play nine holes. I was disappointed to find that it goes out to nine and comes back in. It's a long walk from the ninth green to the parking lot so I played them all and paid the price.

I didn't think that it was any longer or more difficult than Marsh View. It's definitely a bit more challenging to walk as it has more elevation changes. And yes, the signage needs to be better. I spent about five minutes waiting for a green to clear before I realized that I was looking at the wrong green.

I don't hit it anywhere near what I sued to but I took my four wedges, 46, 50, 54, and 58 and only hit the 44 once. But that will be different for everyone. I played the back tees but several holes had much shorter options for tees.
