1st time playing and wont be the last. A real gem of a course. Excellent conditions and pace of play. Love all the old trees you needed to play around that only comes with a course that 100 years old. Outstanding.

First Time my wife went with me

As the title states. She had never been on a golf course and I talked her into tagging along. Course was beautiful, no issues with pace and the ride along fee was just $5. She now says she wants to be all time cart driver and caddy. Only issue, and it wasn’t much of one because it didn’t effect anything, was there were a ton of old broken tees on the tee boxes.

Great course

I recently played here for the first time and it was such a great course to play! Played all 18 and played pretty well. Holes are in a great layout with a good mix of difficulties and different par values! Definitely will be back!
