About
The Gauntlet is situated along the banks of the lake that is the centerpiece of Curtis Memorial Park. When it first opened in 1995, Golf Digest recognized it as one of the "top ten new courses to play in the U.S." This challenging layout will definitely test your shot making abilities. The golf course begins with a tough front nine that has several sharp doglegs over water and tall grasses. There are also a slew of blind shots. The back nine is a bit gentler since there's less water and it is more open and forgiving, but the large, multi-tiered greens can be tricky. The fourth hole is the golf course's signature. Your tee shot will have to carry a marsh to a narrow landing area on this par 5. After that, you'll be faced with a triple-tiered green with the lake to the left and bunkers to the right.

Challenging Dye Course
Course has a very chalk layout built over hill terrain. Greens have plenty of movement that’s adds to the difficulty if in the wrong location.
Challenging course and great staff
This is a great course to challenge your skills. Wonderful staff.
Gauntlet Golf Club Review
The Gauntlet is one of the top corses in the area. It is easy to book tee times,; the staff is very friendly helpful; and the bar and food service is great. The course is demanding and the greens challenging. Makes a golfer come Bach for more
Christmas golf
Thanks to the Gauntlet for opening Christmas Day.
Beautiful day & great fun
Fun course
Great fun course, especially for the prices. Pretty well kept too. Forgiving course as well.
Will do deals too for half off occasionally too.

Decent course
I hope I am not being too harsh. In fall, it’s difficult to maintain course due to leafs everywhere but the course was open. So I expected greens and fairways to be leaf free but wasn’t the case. Couldnt find ball in fairways. Putting was impossible due to leafs everywhere,
Course was great
Course looked good with the exception of about 3-4 holes that had some roughy looking greens. Bunkers where plush and fairways where good.
Tricky little course
The course was in pretty good shape except the greens were a little rough but not terrible. Has some tricky holes but all in all a very nice course.
A Great Day For Golf
The course was in good condition. The staff there is always pleasant and great to deal with. Today's pace of play was not good. 5 groups on one hole due to a tournament and FROG's After getting through the 1st 9 it was perfect.
Great place
The staff is the best in the region , course is well kept , challenging , food is good . Well worth the money , I Golg there at least once a week
Outstanding layout
Overall, good shape. Greens very hard to hold your ball, need to be softened up a bit.
Fall golf with views and visitors
Playing the Gauntlet in the fall means terrific views of the changing colors while enjoying a course that can challenge even the most experienced golfer.
