Beautiful day on a beautiful course

My first time playing here in a few years. It's in much better shape now than the last time. Had a great time playing this fun course. It has a mix of holes that are tight, open, hilly, sloped, doglegs, short and long. The greens were in very good shape. Some had more break than others. It's a challenging course with some holes that require placement shots. Make sure you play the correct tees also.

I loved playing here:

The course is in great condition from the tee boxes, the bunkers, fairways and greens.

It’s a fun course to play with enough water challenges for both the average and low HC player. The clubhouse is one of the nicest in the area and there is a sense of pride in the whole operation.

A day playing Lake Monticello

Great Course. Course was saturated with the amount of rain we have had in the last week. Other than being wet, it was still a great day to be out with friends playing. I would recommend this course to anyone passing through the area that may want to get out and play a round that won't hurt the wallet. Staff keeps the course in great shape.
