Had Dinner at 19 holes restaurant. It is a perfect ten all the way. Excellent service and the food was outstanding. Plate one is the beef brisket, second is twin filet mignon, third dish is the polenta with cheese and spicy shrimp. OMG it was out of this world. Big plus we got to see a beautiful falcon when we arrived. The fire was beautiful. It was a perfect relaxing evening. I give them a 10+++++++ I love this place

Sorry, but I don't know the answer to that question. Perhaps the city, Parks and Recreation will be able to best answer that question for you.
