The course was in really good condition; although the area had a lot of rain the night before. The bunkers needed some work, I blame that on the rain. If you’re in Lewisburg, must play!

Great track!

Not long, but definitely a challenging, shot makers course. Small greens will require some accuracy to stick. Can’t wait to play here again!

Women

They had a women's tournament that started at 9am. They started us on the back 9 and did not give a lot a sufficient amount of time to complete. We were bounced around after the 1st 8 holes and were not allowed to complete all 18 holes. They should not allow tee off times before the women because they were deliberately playing slow to hold up the men.
