Great Course. Once your inside their borders, it seems your moving back in history to a country club that retained its tradition & luster. I really enjoyed the rolling terrain of this course and the tree lined fairways. Even though it's only 6600 yards from the tips, shot placement is very important. The course was in excellent shape for the amount of rain we had and saw very little standing water. Placement of traps and water, along with greens that are teriffic. I also would comment on the putting green near the 10th tee. This is the type of practice green all courses should have. You can practice all types of putting on this green (uphill, downhill, sidehill, straight, and long putts). Our group rated this course a 9+ and will be looking foward to a rematch with this difficult course.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area
Condition of Course, Difficulty, Layout, Ambiance, No Houses on Course, Pace of Play
