This was my first time playing at Eagle Chase. I had heard that it was a much better course since the greens had been converted to Diamond Zoysia. I found this to be a very good layout, with the course well maintained. The greens putted very well even though they were just renovated in April.
The one big problem with this course is the condition of the cart paths. The cart paths are in terrible shape, mainly from tree roots raising and damaging the paths in many areas. This has nothing to do with the playability of the course, but it is somewhat of an annoyance having to either go very slow in many areas, or go normal speed and, self and clubs, be well shaken. Another con to me is that the course is not very walkable due to elevation changes.
I purchased this round via an online golf website at a very good price. If I didn’t live quite far away, I would definitely play this course again due to the great value.

You nailed it. They are very aware of the cart path issues, and are slowly trying to address these – they just don’t have the funds to re-do them wholesale.
