McCracken Country Club is a public, 9 hole sand greens course. It is all volunteer labor and they do a good job keeping it mowed and nice. The course is short, but interesting and fun. There are some challenging holes. #9 is a long, severe dogleg right with trees in the fairway. It is a tough hole to par. #3 is an island green, par 3 that is tough to hit. There are trees that affect a majority of the holes. You can usually catch the locals playing Saturday and Sunday mornings or evenings and they are a fun group. $5 for all day is a bargain. I live 200 miles away, but travel to the area a lot so I bought a $50/year membership! A real bargain! Check out their tournaments, too. A country meal is usually included!
