For Advanced Golfers

This course is not for beginners! This is placement golf. The elevation change is unreal, and the fairways are extremely narrow. A few other things to note - buy the yardage book in the pro shop. The scorecard does not have a map/overview, and you need to hit precise yardages, especially off the tee and on lay ups. (Would've been great if someone in the pro shop would've given us this tip so we weren't playing the course totally blind). There are huge carries on most of the front nine, and if you miss the fairway, you can forget finding your ball. The bunkers were totally overgrown and the greens were in ok condition, but certainly not great.

You do not come back to clubhouse at the turn, so if you want food or drinks, you better grab it before tee-ing off. We never saw a cart runner the entire round (on a Sunday).

I will say, this course is beautiful and has some amazing views. However, be warned if you're not a precise ball striker. I spent more money on lost balls than I did on the round of golf! Even good shots are punished if you don't know your yardages.
