I play this course because it is close to my home and a reasonable price. Also, the staff if friendly and accommodating

This course was built primarily by 1 man using modern equipment, and a lot of sweat and manual labor. I live about 5 miles from this course. It is not the best course in the area, but it is easily accessible, and the staff is friendly. I usually play after work,(6PM) so I am limited to how far I can go and how much time I spend waiting to hit a shot. I have the flexibility to start somewhere besides #1 as long as I do not cut in front of anyone.

Like the course for the challenging holes and difficulty. I go later so crowds are light and pace is good. Very hilly and some really great holes. At 12, start out elevated overlooking the hole. Short par 3 is straightforward. Very nice views of the valkey. I never had a bad time.
