Great Course

I have played GHC several times and it did not disappoint. The front nine is easier than the back 9 whihc has several challenging holes!

Tougher Than Expected

I didn't expect as many forced carries and blind doglegs on a "resort" course. If I hadn't been playing with a friend that has played the course several times, I would have had a much higher score.

The windy conditions also contributed to the difficulty.

AWESOME

An awesome course, not very long but very challenging and iron placements are key to scoring well here. Overall great course conditions and layout. Fun day for golf.

Beautiful

The course is always in great shape. One of the prettiest courses around. Always see deer and other wide life. Great course and a great price with Tee off golf.

Super nice, great day!

As a rookie golfer, it can sometimes be overwhelming to get paired with or pushed up on by players that are above your level of play. The crazy part is, you have to play to get better & this was a beautiful, well-maintained, well-run course. It wasn’t busy at all mid-day, so it was a very relaxing and enjoyable round of golf. Playable, but challenging, beautiful scenery.

Another great day for golf

Greenhorn was a very challenging course if you got off the fairway. Greens were on the slow side but they had been punched just two weeks prior. Otherwise the size and slopes on the greens were almost perfect. This is a great place to get away from all the noise and get some fresh air. Food and drinks were great also. While it was a little chilly with just a hint of wind, all and all the day and course were great.

Great Course

We enjoyed our round despite the sanded greens. The setting is beautiful and the course is interesting.
