When we were there, we had a fousome and a twosome. There was no one behind us, so after 9 holes we joined up and played together. at the 16th hole, the starter send a runner and forced us to break up, even though there was still no one behind us. Talk about anal retentive! I understand the point if the course was crowded, but it wasn't, and further more, we had already played 7 holes together without incident. What was the harm in letting us finish the last holes together?

Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again

I played on Father's Day AM and my son and I were paired with another father son duo. I thought that teeing off at 0800 would assure a 4-4.5 hour round, but instead we ended up after 5 hours. Much too slow. at $100 per person, they should widen out the tee times to 10 minutes or more so that you could move faster. the 4some behind us were pushing us for 4 holes until we just told them to quit it as we were already on the trio ahead of us. Great, great course. VERY challenging, not just long but tricky lies throughout. If you just started playing, I would avoid this course unless you have a huge appetite for lost balls. I thought that I played this course before and rated it, but I think that it was actually Wild Turkey I was on.

Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level
