This is a William Langford designed course. It is precious for that alone. He is one of the best architects ever. The north course is a 9-hole par 3 course. I found it very challenging. It is excellent for practice. The starter said I could hit as many balls as I wanted. I was alone on the course. Doesn't have the giant green complexes that Langford is famous for, but man are the greens tough to hit. Really enjoyed it.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again
