Diamond in the rough.

A postcard view at every new hole.

My golf GPS would not work here. That sucked.

2nd best score of my life though. It was fun to play.

Little slow got behind to groups with small children learning to play so it took 10/15 minutes to tee off on every hole after the 3rd… but hey they paid to play too… so all in all it was a great day!

We enjoyed this nice course

The front nine is fairly easy. The back nine has blind shots and very hilly on holes #14 and #16. Many walkers were out, but they did allow players with carts to play through in my case anyway. The greens were nice. It is a course that can make you feel good shooting a round in the 70's.

Great conditions!

Overall great course for the money, if you need par 3 practice it’s for you. Very short course with a par of 68. The only thing bad to say is there is no Marshall so the pace is garbage we felt rushed the whole front 9. But the greens are fantastic and the fairways are clean cut. Great value course

Fun course

Even though they were upgrading sprinkler system, course was in good shape. Friendly check in and thoroughly explained how the construction will affect our round. Will definitely play this course again!

Great mountain course

Very narrow course, really challenging at times, par 5s are fun because they are reachable in 2 for an average player. Greens were in excellent shape this round
