Watch out for # 7, a 257 yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 6, a 304 yard par-4.

This is a tough course because of the numerous trees that can alter your shots. The narrow fairways are tree lined, and the terrain is rolling. The large greens are medium speed, and there is a lake that comes into play on four holes.

The course closed in 2011.
