We knew what to expect with the lack of clubhouse so we arranged our transfers to arrive just before tee times and pick us up as soon as we finished the round. They gave us a little packed lunch almost as a "sorry and thanks for still playing here" which was a nice touch. The buggy paths are the worst I've ever seen anywhere and I would counsel against anybody with a bad back playing this course. We avoided them when we could. Tee boxes scruffy - no real excuse for that this time of year. Greens and bunkers were fine and the overall layout of the course is really fun - there are some memorable holes here. We had fun as we always do but I wouldn't play it again unless and until there's a clubhouse and some money spent on the buggy paths (and the buggies themselves are getting on a bit). We played it years ago and it was great. Maybe it will be in the future, but I wouldn't rush back unless I was super confident the above points had been addressed.
