Suncadia Resort - Prospector Course
Played On 08/26/2014An enjoyable course with plenty of challenges and risk/reward opportunities
This couse is beautiful, well maintained and challenging without being over the top in difficulty. Some really fun holes, like the par-4 #10 with a tee box high above the fairway (and a distracting view from up there). Proshop staff was friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed my afternoon here and would definitely return.

This course has it all! Beautiful layout, isolated (and immacculate) fairways, carries over water (over ravines, over wetlands), elevated tee boxes, long par 4's, narrow fairways in places (with blind drop zones), wide drop zones on others, doglegs (left and right), great risk/reward decisions. Just about anything you might like to find on a golf course can be found here. Some fun par 3's. A really nice practice facility. Can't say enough about the course. I played the day after a heavy rain and two weeks after the greens had been punched (and some of the fairways had recently been sanded too) - so it could have been better - but now I really want to go back in the peak of the season to see this course at its very best.
A comment about the value for price rating I made: Because it was fall maintenance time and because I got a hot deal off of the Golf Now site, I only paid $25 for my round - at that price this was an amazing deal even with all the maintenance that was in progress (good to know they're taking care of this course). At the regular price, which I believe is $89, I would rate as average value - I would definitely pay the regular rate to play this course in peak season/condition, but at close to a hundred bucks, it's difficult to call anything a "great" value (just worth the money you pay for it).
In summary, you gotta play this course - you won't be disappointed.

Played On 10/3/2013Former private gem now available to us all!
This is a beautilful course - very well maintained. While some of the fairways are quite narrow, it is still playable for mid to high handicappers. A very walkable course. There are some challenging holes with 400+ yard par fours, evilly placed bunkers, and several trees that just seem to want to get in the way of your path to the green. And speaking of the greens, they're fast and several have some undulations that create a opportunities for a few nasty pin placements (which the greens keepers seem to like to take advantage of).
I enjoyed my round and linked up with some very pleasant company both times I played. Definitely put this on your list of must play courses.
