Great course.

Some narrow holes, challenging but not over complicated. I would play it once a week.

Overall Nice Course

I liked this course. I wasn't expecting to be as nice as it was. It has a mix of challenging holes and easier holes. Some tight fairways, and some wide open. Large greens to small greens. Flat greens to a lot of bends. You are on a mountain - so lots of hills. Fairways in great shape, greens were fair. Tee boxes need a little work - grass was high, and too many bumps when trying to get your stance in the right place. Views were great (from what we could see - dense fog in the morning to smoke from the wild fires made it tough). Overall I thought it was a very nice course - and great for the cost in the Northeast.

Good experience

Beautiful view and nice weather! Small green but accessible. I really enjoyed my round! First nine holes the grass on the fairways was long but perfect on the back. I will go back.

Nice day

Greens and fairways were recently aerated so you got some crazy bounces and rolls on green.

Fun course with amazing views

Course was in good condition. The view from the 10th hole is truly spectacular. The staff was great. The only negative thing is when we were making the turn a group of 4 were teeing off. Groups making the turn shouldn’t have to wait. I was the first tee time out so no one should of been in front of us. Other than that I’d highly recommend playing this track.
