Great Course, Great Price, Great Time

Played the Links Course on a weekday, by myself, did not hurry, 2 groups let me play through, finished in approx 3 hours. Fairways were generous, greens moderate speed and generally not flat, some with 2 levels. Would definitely play again.

Definitely NOT a links-styled layout..

All RTJ trail courses are extremely nice. But this one borders on being unfair. Good golf shots are not rewarded. Mr. Jones missed in his design but making small greens with little to no bailout areas, resulting in good shots ending up in bad or even unplayable
positions.

Cost for out of staters is high when compared to locals. I would NOT play this or other trail courses again...

Great course (Lakes) but greens are tricky, very fair otherwise.

Good value and friendly staff. I will play again but you should count on a couple of 3 putts as the greens are fast and you need to be on the right level, hard for the first time player.

Great Facility

These two courses are well worth the effort to travel to area. The Marriott Hotel on site is very nice and perfect for a golf trip with buddy's.

I am anxious to try some of the other RTJ courses as these were very well designed.

What a treat!

Coming from California, these are three of the most challenging and interesting courses that you will ever play. Don't eliminate the short course from your play. It is the most challenging par 3 you will ever play.

Quite a place!

These were probably three of the best and most challenging courses that I have ever played. I played all three. The links course here is the most difficult course I have played, but not impossible for a 14 handicap, if you're on your game. The short course is the most interesting course you'll play minus the tee shot.

Beautiful course and tough test.

Even if it's named "The Links", it is not really your typical links course. Chip and run will not help you here. It is more of a classic course lined with tall pine trees. The fairways are wide enough. The challenge comes with the approach shots. Numerous marshes protect the greens. Requires a lot of carry over. The greens are really undulated. The course is very difficult. You can't get away with an errant approach shot. Bring your A game.
