Default Continental Golf Course and Harbor Hills

Wondering if any one played these courses recently? Condition?

Played Harbor Hills two weekends ago but only got 5 holes in because of thunderstorms. I'd definitely play it again, and will with the rain check. Nice layout and greens were in good shape.

I played Continental a few years ago and it was in horrendous condition. A friend played Harbor Hills recently and said it was great.

It's been a while since I played either of those courses, but Continental has always been a low budget, economy golf course and the conditions usually reflected this.

Harbor Hills, OTOH, has always been very well kept and in good condition in my experience.

Continental has sunk some money into improving the course and it shows.

Two years ago Continental did some major work on their course. I don't golf but is there a reason that no one ever mentions Pennbrooke on 44 just east of TV? I remember seeing signs last year that they were doing a lot of work in there and it's open to the public.

I ended up staying down here longer than planned this year and priority membership expired. Figured it was a good time to try something outside TV for a change so I just grabbed a tee time tomorrow morning at Harbor Hills. Looking forward to the change in scenery

Played HH three weeks ago. I was impressed with the course. Greens decent and rolling true. (fast) . Tees ok. Plenty of grass on the fairways. I would give it a solid 6.8/10

Did not play, but saw course from the clubhouse on 4/25. Looked very good and lush.

Nice little course with GRASS, I'll definitely be playing there again, especially for only $40
