Their new clubhouse is almost completed so not fair to comment negatively about Food/Bar or Pro Shop. That will all change this fall.
Their 'rack rate' of $58 weekday & $80 weekend (including cart) is higher than we will pay, but I bought an afternoon tee time at special rate online. It's an easy 40 mile expressway drive, so that distance wouldn't deter me if the price is right.
This course was in immaculate condition. The best we've played in recent memory. The pros could play here today with no complaints. The rough would undoubtedly we lengthened for them.
Bermuda fairways and Bentgrass greens. Other courses in the area, with Bentgrass greens have had terrible conditions this summer, but Finley greens are perfect.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area
