Six members of my golf group played there yesterday and discovered the greens were impeccable, the fairways well grassed and the bunkers were raked and had very good sand in them. And their afternoon rate was just $34.95 + Tax, less than half the cost of most of The Villages courses. Same El Nino, same "too much rain", same "too much cloud cover". If CCC can do it why can't The Villages?
Do they get the same amount of use that The Villages does? Here, it's four off about every 10 minutes, all day every day.
