This is better than most munis to be sure. The greens are well maintained and were all replaced about 6 years ago. The course is fairly flat and wide open though they have added a few trees strategically placed a couple years ago. Length is the primary defense for this course. They have a really nice practice facility. Double deck range, two short game practice areas for pitches and chipping and another large green for putting. The club is large and very active. About 10 events per year and most of them have 90-130 participants in any given event. While there are houses around the perimeter of the course, none come into play unless you REALLY whack one sideways. You wouldn't know you were in one of the largest cities in the U.S. The course is green and is an enjoyable walk. The homes around the perimeter are suburban, not urban.
