The course is a value especially if you book on line. It is cool and beautiful with plenty of wild birds and a few goats. But a very beautiful course with a nice staff.
The one thing is the greens are on the slow side. There are a couple of greens that seem to have different types of grass in the mix and run faster. Also there was one cup set too high in which a good putt popped out that should have went in. A couple of holes had severe breaks right at the cup. Very important to hit your putter firm with so many breaks at the cup.
Other than the greens the course was a value and I enjoyed it very much.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
