Beautiful Place To Golf

Greens have some subtle breaks, more than big undulations, and were pretty fast. Course is a little narrow, but not as much as it appears. Ball carries a little farther at 4,000+ elevation. Really nice course in great condition. Hope to play it again soon, before I forget everything I learned yesterday!

Course in very good shape

Course, as always, is in very good shape. Greens are rolling well and pretty quick. Only negative factor was the placement of several of the "white" tee blocks. For whatever reason, they were moved way forward, up to the "green" tees. Although the scorecard says 5,800+ yards for the whites, it played much shorter. Several hundred yards so, I would guess. If I wanted to play a short course, I would choose the short tees myself. 5,800 yards is already pretty short, I certainly didn't want it any shorter.

Very good greens

Course is in very good shape. Greens are fast and true, with a few ball marks here and there. Overall, don't know that I have seen this course in better shape. Pretty wet early, so keep it in the short grass.

Fantastic Course

Words don't do this course justice. The course is beautiful, as is the awesome country it sits in. Although it was raining most of the round, the course was still very playable and we had it to our selves. Greens, even wet, were really quick and massively contoured. i. e., very tough. Better leave your ball below the hole, or you are in for a ride. Can't imagine how tough they would be when dry and rolling their fastest. There are a few holes with hazards that surprise, cutting across the middle of the fairway but out of sight due to the terrain. Do your homework, buy a yardage book, whatever it takes, it will save some strokes. Played it two days in a row and can't wait to go back!

Good features, great price

The course was in good shape overall. Greens were very good, but the fairways were a little thin already. Plenty of character on the greens and the course itself.

Course is in great shape

Although there were a lot of golfers, pace of play was very good. Course is visually appealing and very well maintained. Lots of different types of hazards, yet plenty of room in the fairways. Really nice greens, lots of character and in very good condition.

Good, but not great.

Tee blocks were in poor condition. Fairways were in really good condition. Greens had been punched recently, apparently, and need some more time to smooth out. Putting was a challenge due to the punching holes and how slow the greens rolled.

The course, as usual, was fun to play.

The course was generally in good condition, however the sand traps needed some attention. There were many animal and man tracks, which resulted in some unfortunate lies.

Great course, terrible pin locations

Pins were put in the worst, and unfair, locations possible, intentionally. Per the pro shop, they do this for Halloween, or something. They may think it funny, but I didn't find anything funny about multiple 3, 4, and even 5 putts! Wouldn't play it again with these pin locations.
