Great Layout and Tee Selections
Tee shots are most important for taking advantage of scoring. Some holes have tight fairways for landing areas. Greens are well guarded with bunkers. Windy conditions make this course very challenging.

South side gem
The course is in great shape. The greens rolled true, but not too fast. Staff in the club house are great and helpful. Pace of play was excellent.

Another must play
Played Sanctuary for the first time in several years. What a treat!!! A somewhat demanding course with tight fairways in some holes. You must not pull driver out on certain holes and play right club for ball placement. Greens are somewhat speedy. I love the course for a local course and would recommend playing it if you can. Will play it again next summer.

Worth a play or two annually.
Great course to play. Must drive the ball well and you do not have to use driver on each hole but you can. Greens faster than what they looked. Will definitely play it again. Thanks
