Very pretty and very difficult

The course needs to add an additional tee box. As it is today it is too long for seniors.

Good course and never crowded!

I play this course quite often and it is more challenging than most courses in the area (besides Quail Creek). They have put a lot of work into the greens and they are already looking pretty good. The back nine is what makes this course challenging, a lot of OB and tough holes.

$18.50 is a steal!!!

This has always been a challenging but fun course in Jeff Co. Now that they are semi private I can go without my friends hookup! The majority of the greens were aerated but they played well. Great pace of play but we did have a marshal come around who was not what you would call friendly. Take this deal and hit Union Hills!

Not for a beginner.

Lots of work going on getting ready for the season. Greens were being ariated and fairways were being fertilized, so not a fair evaluation.
I've played this in season and love it.

Fun and Challenging

Teamsters Local 688 has finally opened this course up to the public. Considering the minimal options in Jefferson County this is a great deal. For 17.00 I played 18 and the course was in good shape, especially considering the recent snow storm. The greens were fast and the fairways were pretty tight but you could still get underneath the ball.
Fairways are challenging, narrow in some spots. Definitely a good course with not a lot of traffic. Doesn't rate in the upper end of public courses but it is a good mid-range course that is challenging.

Course is good

The Course is good. Greens took a major hit this summer but they definitely worked on them. Last time I checked you have to be a member to golf here.
