Challenging but fun

Had a great time playing this course. It had several challenging holes, but the cheat sheet they give you helped. We will return and play again.

Great Round of Golf

Leisurely Monday round of golf with great pace of play. First time, so the Caddy Sheet was instrumental on the front nine where precision golf comes into play. Looking forward to playing this course again. The staff and the starter were super cool and friendly.

Back Nine Bliss

Extremely beautiful golf course, with plush fairways and immaculate greens. Always a destination we love to visit for our favorite sport. Hitting down #15 and gearing up for the challenging 3-Par #16 are two holes we particularly LOVE.

Nice course, parking not great

This course is in nice condition and there are some interesting holes in the layout. In all the course plays quite short and we were forced to some shorter tees due to a function at the Farmhouse. The biggest negative is the parking for golf which is a very long way away from the pro shop. They do offer you can take a cart if there are 2 of you and I suggest you take that offer. We didn’t and you can easily get lost trying to get back as the facility meanders over a huge area.

Beautiful course with lush mountains and valleys...very challenging for a 15 handicap. Lots of hidden fairways and Gulleys that are very intimidating.

I only lost 8 balls...could have been worse:)

Beautiful resort and less than expected course conditions.

The golf staff and restaurant servers are the best I have experienced anywhere in the world. This is a beautiful property. The resort is immaculate and is set in well kept gardens. The weather was sunny and perfect. This golf course layout is spectacular. There is much elevation on most holes with often small greens surrounded by many bunkers. If you stay in the wide fairway you will score well. This is a target golf layout where it is important to hit the landing area that may mean you use a club other than your driver off the tee. Pay attention to the GPS on the cart. You must pay attention to the slopes on the fairways and the surrounding hills that influence the path of your shot. The greens are small to average size that are true though lots of undulations. The greens were still recovering from the aerification a month earlier. Half of the greens showed winter damage. The fairways were mostly good condition with half showing thin conditions that may have been the result of the large amount of rain this season. May be better condition later in the season. it was a fun time.
