Ben Brown's is a fun 9 hole track

Saw a bobcat. Course was packed but other than that outstanding hidden gem of a 9 hole course.

Great morning

Great nine holes to stretch the legs. Looked really backed up as we finished but if you want to walk nine holes, you can’t beat this place.

Beautiful, fun course

Best 9 hole around. Course is in fantastic condition. Pace of play is pretty slow, and because it’s in a valley and most deals are around sunset, it’s probable that you won’t play the last hole or two. If you can get on early, it’s well worth it. Relaxing but challenging course. Will be back.
