An absolutely beautiful course. Fairways are like greens where I come from, while greens are superb. Greens are very tricky to read; if I were to offer a suggestion, break is always toward the lake in the center of the course -- no matter what your eyes tell you. Course set up would probably challenge a professional; a hacker like me would like pin positions a little easier.

The greens will kill you. Be prepared. Once you get to know them they are true but very fast. Very unlike the greens I'm used to, but really true and fun (I think).

I played this a few times a few years apart. Course was renovated and made easier between visits. It's still plenty of golf. A much better choice than the Penn State courses also in the area. I'll play it again when I go through town.
