Lots of Bang for the Buck

After playing this PAR 63 course a number of times last year I thought I would not 'like' to play it much this year. For a short course (non-Par 5, and some short/shorter holes), this 18 hole course offers plenty of challenges and opportunities to practice all aspects of the game. From the Blue Tees, this course has some Par 4s that require a good drive and a short to mid iron in. The Par 3s from the Blues also require some mid irons. The greens were in good condition given the time of year and the pace of play was superb. I finished in under 3 hours. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for (a) a shorter round, (b) someone who is looking to work on his/her short game - NOTE - all greens have good approaches, sand traps, some water and YES - real 'par 72' size greens. But again, there's a couple opportunities to hit Driver of the tee and 3 wood all day long.

Challenging course due to sloped and tree lined fairways.

For the money, this course is well worth the round. However, there are many holes with sloped fairways and strategically placed tress, with some narrow tees and/or approaches, that do make this course a challenge. Some well hit tee shots can end up with a side hill lie even in the middle of the fairway. The ability to work the ball from left to right or right to left is very helpful here. Greens are in need of some improvement during the early season due to Elk. *Note - at least 5 greens were severely spotted and a few weeks from being solid again.
Again, for the money (anything $35 and under) this course is worth the money considering the 55 - 75$ of some surrounding courses.
Walking this course is definitely a work out. With the hills and side slopes, a cart is very recommended.
