Great greens

Fairways, sand traps and roughs were in good condition. Greens held the approach shot, rolled true, and were moderately fast. Challenging course if played from the correct tees.

High level facility

Amazing course, decent shape, could be a little more tidy on and around the greens, and tee boxes, but the price equals the value. Highly recommend. Would go back every week in the current conditions. Would pay $80 easy if it were in top shape. Pro shop lacks character and any decent merchandise at all. Very dull. Those are just picky critiques. Absolutely go play.

Perfect day for golf

The course was almost perfect and the day started out a little cool and foggy. But by about 1:30 the fog lifted and sun came out and course was playing great. The only reason I gave only 4 stars on over all ranking was there were 2 greens that could have been prepped a b little better and it would have been nice if the bunkers had been raked. Other then that I had a wonderful experience. I will be back to play again and would highly recommend this course.

Frosty's opinion

This was my first time playing the famous rock Barn that the seniors on the PGA tour play once a year...

And man it did not disappoint at all! Fantastic chorus at a reasonable price. Great amenities and friendly staff!

I would recommend this to all of my golfing buddies...
