A simply outstanding course for an incredibly low price. It's definitely in the middle of nowhere, and you might have to deal with the odor of a nearby meat-packing plant (prevailing wind usually away from course towards plant), but it's a steal and a great treasure to that part of the state...well worth a daylong drive and overnight stay.
