Great course. Beautiful views!

BMGC was challenging and fun to play! The greens were coated in some sort of fertilizer and that was my only complaint. The course is in great shape! The views are incredible!

Great Bones, Terrible Condition

The front 9 designed by Donald Ross are a great collection of holes that weave around themselves in typical Ross fashion. Love the green complexes and approaches into the greens from the fairways. The back 9 has great mountain views and an enjoyable layout.

It is hard to look past the torn up fairways, excessive top dressing on the greens (at least .5 inch of sand in places), making putting useless. Most punched/top dresses greens can still be putted on, however these were so thickly top dressed that it felt like wet snow on every green.

Pro shop is nearly empty, no driving range, and old carts. So much potential for a gem of a mountain course.

Fun Course

Course was fun to play. Narrow fairways, blind shots and sloped fairways. Greens were in very good condition, however, many of the tee boxes could use some work. The par 6 #17 is a great hole, big fun. I would play this again and it is well worth the price.

Inexpensive Golf

Biggest thing going for this course is view’s off the Mountains and inexpensive price.

Greens is good shape and putted well. Front nine fairways not good but back nine better condition. Carts had tape holding seats together and generally very dirty.

Staff very friendly.

Perfect Day

There was an outing in progress, but the started got us out immediately ahead of a couple of foursomes (we were a 2some) so we wouldnot have to wait. The front 9 was a touch slow, but we were still done in under 2 hours. At 10 we jumped ahead of 3 foursomes who were drinking to the 12th tee box. The rest of the back 9 flew and we finished with 10 and 11.

A very pleasurable afternoon,
