Hidden Gem

Was very pleasantly surprised by the former Elks Lodge Course. Don't be put off by the clubhouse/pro shop. They are very spartan, but I think it is because they are pouring the money into the course. The fairways were pristine, and the greens were some of the fastest, best kept, I have ever played on a public course. The course is rolling hills, with lots of elevated greens. The course itself is quite wide, so getting off the tees is easy, but the greens are very quick. Enjoy.

Good greens.

Very interesting layout. The greens are in very good shape.
We played as a twosome, not very busy. So we got around in about 3 1/2 hrs.

This course has great views

You must be able to drive the ball straight. A few greens are tough to keep the ball on. Easier to walk the front nine than the back
