After having never played this very local course, I have played it 4x in the last year.
They did a very nice job of making the most golf-worthy holes out of the terrain given.
Only a couple of the holes run parallel to each other, and every hole has its differences and challenge.
There are some houses quite in "Range", however they are not overwhelming.
Some of the holes are quite tough, #'s 1(450 yard par 4) & 2(505 yd par 5 uphill with a tree protected green), get you started right away with pars being very good indeed.
Currently they have a $20/deal with cart weekdays. A solid deal indeed.
Only issue here.....on the weekends, there is a hacker-fest. Slow play, hole jumpers, and poorly behaving players.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
