The course have some very unique holes that are a challenge and fun to play. The Staff are friendly and helpful.
The restaurant is probably deserves a grade of "D" compared to other courses of similar type and price in the area. I agree with one of the other commentors that the sand traps not maintained very well. The driving range is wide open, has a large hitting deck and has sevral distance flags. The cons of the driving range is that it's to far from the club house and the ball machine is to far from the hitting area.
BlackJack is the 18 hole course. Sawtooth is the 9 hole course. Sawtooth is set up with two tee box area so that it can be played as an 18 hole layout. The course is short but difficult because of the many creeks that cross the fairways with the greens quite close to the creeks. I like to play this course because it requires good accurate iron play.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
