One of the best courses I have ever played. It is a very interesting layout with lots of very challenging holes, some short, some long. Because of hte mounding between fairways you often feel as though you're on the course alone. Good shots are rewarded and bad shots can be punished. It's the type of course that course management and ball control are important. Only real problems I had with course was the greens didn't roll as smooth as I would expect on a course with price of $110. My group played for 1/2 price so it's hard to complain about anything because it's worth every penny at that price. Also has good practice facility with included range balls, short game area and nice practice putting green.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Best course in the area
