My last time to get to play my favorite course design. If this course was in any populated area, the price would be three times higher. I live in the Monterey area which has great courses but I've never played a design like this. Not long, not particulary hard for a slope of 132 (blue), but you have to think your way around the course or it will be very difficult. If this course doesn't make it (area hard hit by housing crisis), I hope the NCGA buys it. The design is just too good to lose.
Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area
