Beware of the greens

Caution beware of greens. Idk if they had a event of the weekend but the course greens are nothing compared to the putting green. Only disappointment of the rd but for me the greens are the most important part.

Fun and Tough Combination

This is a fun course that is interrupted by quite a few tough holes. We used every club in our bags to respond to the challenges before us. Course conditions were excellent. There is no driving range but there was a chipping and pitching practice area (70 yds) that proved to be useful to us before the round. A few holes are directly adjacent to I-94 which generated background noise in the relatively peaceful setting. We will play it again

NICE TRACK!!

Always a pleasure to play this course.Its close to an hour drive each way to get out to pierce lake.But each time over the years we are always greeted by friendly people.The course is a good challenge for all skill levels.Greens run true and are usually quick.If there is one negative here its the sandtraps.Some are really decent while others need alot of attention.My hope is that as the season goes on the poorly conditioned bunkers will get some TLC to further enhance this quality course.Try it if you haven't you won't be sorry...we will be back!!Pace of play us usually right about 4 hours give or take...but it often seems a little faster.Keep up the good work!!
