how sad – this is a potentially beautiful course with a lot of potential – neat layout with fun elevation changes – a Carolina Trails course that continues to be neglected – Troon folks managing the course are very nice and professional, which suggests they are being starved by the private equity owners and can’t do routine upkeep – weeds all over the place – just depressing – lots of the fairways just plain dirt – did not see one maintenance person the entire round – I had high hopes this place would come back, but I don’t see much difference between the old owner that attracted such negative attention and the new owners who seem to be neglecting the course – dudes, just send somebody out with a weedeater and some clippers – driving range ball dispenser surrounded by weeds – again my guess is that the owners are running this place on the mega-cheap, and running it into the group – can’t imagine the folks in this subdivision are happy about having a course with such potential being a garden of weeds, weeds, and more weeds
