My first time there, and really enjoyed the course. The fairways are mostly bentgrass and in good shape, and offered pretty tight lies on most shots. The pros would love this but at my higher handicap I ended up with quite a few "fat" shots. The bunkers were in good shape and the greens were fairly quick but consistent and not overly undulated. The crowd was sparse on this warm Thursday noon-time, and our three-some zipped right around in about 3 hours. I got a good price with a hot deal and cashing in some rewards, but at the regular price I would have to play here rather sparingly, but I will be back.

Front nine is very scenic, enjoyable, and not too long for a high handicapper. Back nine is long, difficult and rather soggy in places. Play was pretty slow, thanks mainly to the five-some ahead of us. I really think courses shouldn't allow this on busy days..

The course is much improved over last couple of years. Fairways were in great shape and mowed close. Rough was a little high but fair. Greens were in very good condition. Bunkers were all over the map... some had fresh sand and were great, some had fresh sand dumped in them but not spread yet, and some were nothing but hard-pan dirt. Still this course is one of my favorites in this area.

Most of the fairways and greens were in excellent shape with lush grass in the fairways. A couple of tricky greens with the holes cut in the middle of penalizing slopes. A fairly long and windy drive from the Louisville area but worth it. There is no real "signature hole" as far as I am concerned, but a few log cabins here and there make it fairly scenic.

I was very pleasantly surprised when I arrived today for the first time this season, and saw the improvements that have been made to the course; The fairways were much greener, the greens were in good shape, and the bunkers had all been completely dug out and re-sanded! The worker in the pro shop and in the bar/restaurant were both very friendly and helpful, as was one groundskeeper that stopped to talk to us. There was a noticeable lack of ball washers, trash cans, and drinking water on the tee boxes, but at the rate the improvements are being made I'm sure this will be rectified soon. I'll be back soon!
