Refurbishing GREENS 9/2012 until anticipated REOPENING April 2013. The bent greens are typically fabulous, moderately fast, & very undulated/challenging. This course gives your short game a stiff test AND your driver if challenging the 10 (of 12) drivable par 4s. The 72 year old greens have been plagued with pithium from July through March the past 4 years. HCC has an open air clubhouse as the historic clubhouse burned down May 2012. HCC is in my top 5% of visually pleasing courses, especially in mid October.

Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Best course in the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing

This course gives your short game a stiff test AND your driver if challenging the 10 (of 12) drivable risk-reward par 4s. HCC is in my top 5% of visually pleasing courses, especially in mid October.
