Played this course on an UnderPar coupon which allowed me to also play the other 18 holes - the Champions. Of the two, I prefer the this one - the Legends. Wonderful layout that goes up and down and around some natural hills. The green complexes are very challenging with lots of contours and very deep bunkering. Our starter warned us that the rough was very deep and he wasn't wrong. In fact, the over-seeded ryegrass rough was way too deep and that is my only complaint. It was easily 4-5" deep and every time anyone went in the rough it resulted in a long search just to find the ball. This course is challenging enough without the deep rough. Otherwise, you will never get bored playing this course and each hole looks different from the others. They do have tee boxes that can make this course very long but it appears they rarely use them. However, I would recommend you pick a length that is normal for you or even a bit shorter as many approach shots are going to a green perched a bit uphill. I would play this course all the time if I lived nearby.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area
