Course is Very Hilly

The course is very hilly and some fairways are very tight. If you hit a shot that goes to the rough your will have a hard time finding your golf ball.

Poor routing

This course could have been wonderful. However the course was in only SO-SO condition. course had way to many blind tee shots for the passerby to be able to stop in and have any idea where to hit the ball because of this round took an overly long amount of time having to drive up and figure out the line and aim points.

A good, moderately challenging layout.

Very difficult to find ball just off fairway because of clover and white flowers.

tough but fair.

It was cart-path only this day due to previous rain. the mobility would have been helpful with the rolling terrain and course setup but was very enjoyable none the less. Pro shop gentleman was a bit overwhelmed at check-in. Course is for sale but the upkeep still seemed good with the exception of one green that had been patched. Overall good value course with some potential to really take off with right ownership. Will play it again.

Tough greens

Bring al your clubs short and long holes require use of every club in your bag. Some holes tight others wide open, challenging but fair.

Fun and challenging course but could use some maintenance.

This course has a duke's mixture of hole types from elevated tee's to wide open fairways to tight doglegs with tree-lined fairways. The par 5 15th hole is definitely one of the most difficult holes at this course. I enjoy playing here, but some some additional attention given to tee boxes and bunkers would go a long way in making this a better course. Some of the tee boxes are not very flat and some of the bunkers are really more dirt than they are sand. I would definitely recommend playing here though.
