Several years ago we met and visited with Carol Morgan, Becky Karsten and Sandy Campbell at Buzz's Wharf on Maui. They were kind enough to share their dessert with us. We were told that if we ever get to Alaska to try to get to the Kenai Golf Course. We will be in Alaska later in July but will be in and out of Anchorage only overnight. We will be with another couple who invited us to celebrate their 50th anniversary with them. We have gone to Maui each year and stay at the Maui Sunset in Kihei. The condo is owned by a lady from Anchorage by the name of Marge Olson. Her deceased husband was an accountant. We are there from January 20 to mid March in 2012. If there is any chance you might be visiting Maui again, please contact us. Email address is btthurber@me.com. Bev's cell phone is 402-304-2369. We owe you at least a dessert. We extend our kindest regards to Sandy, Becky ad Carol. Tom and Bev Thurber

Very challenging course. If you can't stay in the middle of the fairway, take a lot of balls. Greens are very challenging. Super slow with lots of breaks. Considering there are only 23 courses in Alaska, I am hesitant to actually rank this course. With a slope rating of 139 from the whites, you know it is going to be challenging.
