This is now Canyon Farms and is moving toward it's original objective of a private club. It is managed by Great Life Golf and Fitness and is open at reduced fee to those holding GL & F memberships elsewhere.
This is a very difficult golf course and since it now has some maturity on it - the greens are very fast but roll very truly. They are doing many heavy maintenance projects and the sand traps are nearing completion with tour level trucked in white sand. The signature Hole Number 3 is undergoing a major rebuild during August 2016. It's very tight with a rock wall left and the quarry pit right. It looks like they're adding length. When complete it will still be this very excellent course's signature hole.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
