Not a bad place

Traps are horrible. Not maintained, weeds, pretty bad. Greens were OK, some bad spots. Fairways in pretty good shape. No water on the course. at all.

Loved it!

Beautiful layout. Lots of elevation changes. Well groomed roughs and easy to find the errant shots. I’d definitely play here again.

Great Mountain Golf

Wow! What a great layout with outstanding course maintenance. Every hole was uphill or downhill, and some were both. Excellent test of shot-making skills from uphill, downhill, and sidehilll lies. Rough could be difficult, and on many holes had to judge whether to lay up or try to carry streams. Great mountain views. Not for beginners.
