I have 1 handicap. I have played around the world, and I love challenging layouts. This place is unbelievable. What a track!! I played the first week of May and the greens had been aerated just before I got there, and had not fully recovered, but I will be back again to see what the greens are really like. Lots of undulations and elevation changes on holes, and beautiful scenery. I know the course owners are in court now and development is on hold, and a big fine clubhouse will eventually be built. But the facilities and the staff there make it worth the trip. Bull,Clark, and Al will treat you like royalty to make your day a real pleasure. They were all so courteous to me when I showed up. This is a must play course.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again
