Challenging, yet beautiful layout. Fairways were a bit ragged in places, the "rough" was very ratty and unkempt, but the greens were fast and true. I expected it to be in better condition for the reputation it has. Got this at a bargain price, so I don't know that I would play it for the full price... would have lost a lot of value points for the full $120 with cart. I would recommend it based on the layout and beautiful surroundings.
Great amenities, but tending toward the expensive side for refreshments. Overall, it was a great golf experience for the bargain price but wouldn't go out of my way for the full ticket.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area
