Great course. Important to play from the correct tees - as the traps are strategically located. Keep it on the 'green stuff' - you will have a wonderful round. Hit it off the fairways, you will wish you were in one of the 109 sand traps. I think the 14th hole has 14 traps. One caution - since this course is only a few miles from a dairy that milks 200,000 cows a day - - if the wind is blowing from that direction - - you will experience the fragrant "dairy-air" - along with some flies. But, the course is worth it - - and a real surprise out in the middle of 'nowhere'. This is a quality course.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
