This is my second time to play the wonderful La Cumbre golf course and the first time I was so impressed I wrote the G.M. a letter.
The second visit confirmed my first impression, this place must have some of the best ground staff in the country and the members take care of the course. Not a divot hole anywhere and the incredibly receptive but fast greens make hitting past the hole and spinning it back possible for even the average golfer.
