Course is based on the styles of the great course architects, but it's not a replica course. Therefore, the routing flows freely and the holes are interconnected. The area is beautiful, the course is playable without being overly penal, and it's worth the 80-mile drive to play a couple of times a year. I paid the senior rate, but for the experience I believe the course gives good value. I only wish that, in keeping with the history it emphasizes, that it encouraged walking more (it's a very walkable course).
Would travel: 60-120 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
