Saturday, a little past noon. Four of us, one scorecard, and a friendship that has survived two weddings, one boat and a very bad fantasy football trade. My oldest friend Marco was up by a stroke on the 7th, standing over an eight-footer that broke hard left off a ridge like it had somewhere better to be.
He made it. Naturally.
I needed something to restore my faith in the universe. After the 9th we stepped off to the patio and I ordered. While we waited, Marco and I played a foosball grudge match. He won that too.
The best nachos of my life, and I have lived. A platter of crispy corn tortillas, piled high and unashamed. Queso poured over the top in slow, golden rivers. Fresh pico de gallo, bright as a beach umbrella. Jalapenos scattered like a dare. A cool pour of avocado lime crema, and a generous crown of guacamole, green as the fringe around the cup.
You can add chicken or seasoned beef. Marco wanted the beef. I wanted the chicken. We are, after all, rivals in all things.
Here is what nobody tells you about nachos at the turn: they make you generous. I offered Marco the chip with the most queso on it. He offered me a read on the 12th. Uphill, he said, and it barely moves. He was right.
I still lost by two. But I got the last chip, the one buried under the guacamole, and I never told him.

Came for the putting, stayed for the food. The double smash burger is unreal, crispy edges and that bacon jam. We ended up sitting on the patio for two hours after our round.

Ordered a round of BarTender's Choice cocktails from the course and they found us on the 11th. The Birdie Juice is dangerously good. Already planning our next visit.

The kids ran between the playground and our table the whole time. Tenders were hot and crispy, and they were thrilled with the chips. Easiest family night we've had in months.

Honestly didn't expect a golf spot to have food this good. The ahi tuna nachos and miso salmon were both a hit. The course itself is legit too, real breaks and tiers.

Brunch on the patio before an early round is our new Sunday thing. Chicken and waffles with Mike's Hot Honey, a Hair of the Bird, and a lag putt I'm still bragging about.

Lost at cornhole, won at ping pong, and the wings made up for both. Staff kept checking on us without hovering. Great spot for a group.

The Tequila Creamsicle tastes like summer camp for adults. Paired it with the Korean steak tacos after our round and watched the sunset from the patio. Perfect night.
