Course has alot of "Doglegs" (7) that keeps you looking at the "Great" yardage book for driving tips. For first time players here i found that you could drive through fairways and get into trouble, USE the book. Fairways had colored yardage plates that seem pretty accurate and were helpful. Greens rolled very true and were firm with unseen small breaks because of the terrain setting. Will come back again and watch the yardages closer on the doglegs. Very nice walking course with its traditional layout. Call ahead as they have many speicals for here and at Glenkerry GC thats why I rated the value so high.(36 holes for $40 w/ cart !!!!)
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Condition of Course, Layout, Price, No Houses on Course, Pace of Play, Staff
