$16 (cart not included), played on Thursday, August 2010 at noon
This is a tough course to walk and I guess that's why seniors walk for $16. I play this course for conditioning as do my friends.I can't remember the last time I saw anyone else walk the course, it's a real push or pull depending on your cart.Every hole has a new challenge and the condition of the course is good. The sand traps have all been redone and a pot bunker with steps can be found on the first hole. I believe they have free waste water for 20 years and the course as a result is green,green,green even in August! If you want a challenge on a hot day(temp today is in the high 90's) this is it. Best play is in the fall and spring and before the winds come up in the early afternoon.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
