This course is an old-style course that runs through old sycamore trees, pines, etc. Built way back in the 1970's, it was redesigned in the 80's after severe flooding. However the new layout is fun and challenging. Mostly a flat course with a few holes that use the nearby surrounding hills for some elevation changes. A fair test that will challenge you to keep your drives straight, otherwise you will be navigating shots around some big trees. On the day I played, the greens were perfect, fast, and very difficult if you got above the hole. Great bunkers and the fairways were just about a week away from being perfect as they were allowing the overseed to fill in. Well worth the travel and the money.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level
