Fun, Challenging Course

This is a great design that will keep you on your toes regardless of the tee box you select. There is a lot of water, tree lined fairways, sand traps, and elevation changes to play around. The greens rolled well and the chipping areas were well groomed. The staff was friendly. I will return.

Great layout for a challenge

This course is always a place to measure your best skills. The course challenges all of your clubs, depth perception and accuracy. There is little room for error on many holes. Each hole is unique and fun and offers its own test. There are birdies out there just stay patient.

One of my favorite local courses

Great course that I play many times each year. This regional park golf course will challenge your skills as there are a lot of forced carries. There are several intimidating pin placements and a lot of decision making to be had. Having said that there are several chances for birdies. It's a course you have to play a few times to appreciate.

Nice club with a variety of holes

This course has a some moderate and difficult holes. There are some very tight driving areas and one super difficult par three on the back side. There are many birdie opportunities with precision shot making. Currently 2 holes are temporary due to construction on the far end of the course. The course is in good condition and the golfers are friendly. There is a nice practice area with driving range and putting green. The club facilities are under going upgrades so I cannot comment.

Challenge for all

This amazing layout must be played multiple times to get your bearings. There are so many challenges it will keep you on your toes. There's plenty of length for longer hitters. The staff was friendly and accommodating. There's a great deck for outdoor eating with nice views.

Great layout for all golfers

This is an excellent course for many level of golfers. Please choose the correct tee box for your level. The course is open, but with length, many traps, and a few tight holes on the back 9. The course is in excellent shape and my group enjoyed the day. A Marshall would help the pace. There was a backup on the tough par 3, #8.

Elevation Changes Galore

This is a challenging course no matter how many times you play it. The first time is crazy hard. The elevation changes will challenge your senses and there are some blind shots which will throw you off. Distance control is a must. There are several shots with extreme angled lies. Hole 4 is the most extreme in both blind shots and elevation changes. There is no easy shot on this hole. The course conditioning is great and it's a must play if you are in the area.

Plan part of your golf trip here

I have played this course on consecutive golf trips. This is a great course that could use some upgrades. I'm not sure what the future of this course is since it's a bit off the beaten path. There are many holes with water especially the par 3's. There s trust some holes in which you must trust your swing and there are several birdie opportunities. Play on!

This is a fun layout. There are many challenging holes mixed in with some birdie opportunities. A number of holes have water and there are plenty of elevation changes. Hole 11 is particularly difficult. I would recommend this course for sure. We played first (3 golfers) on Sunday morning in 3 hrs 15 mins!

What you expect at a resort course

This resort has a nice welcoming feel to it. The drive into the resort is nice unto itself. The pro shop and restaurant are very nice. We had lunch there. The golf course is an excellent layout, great conditions, and very challenging. There are many elevation changes so pick the right tee box for your game or expect to be overwhelmed. There are many picturesque holes and the back nine or a at least the last 6 have that classic country club feel. Good luck!

A challenge for your game

This course is tough from the start. You will have to use many clubs, figure where to place your shots, and make tough up and downs. The course is hilly and challenging with water coming into play on several holes. Move up a tee box in windy conditions. The course is in good shape for March and the greens were fine. The staff was very nice to us and we enjoyed our round.

Challenging Golf Course

This course is a bit off the beaten path but worth it. There are many water holes and the course boasts multiple holes located on river islands! Bring plenty of golf balls as water lurks everywhere. The course has many elevation changes and provides a good mix of short and long holes. You will use all your golf wits here! Eat before you go because the grill may not be open.

A real challenge, decent pace of play.

This course will challenge your tee shots and club selection. Even short holes have forced carry and the course is tight. Course conditions in Mar are expectedly average. Greens were quick and true. Staff is always friendly. Lots of regulars enjoy after round laughs. Pace is usually decent and price is inviting.

Tough in wind

The course's fairways are in excellent shape. The greens are still filling in from aeration. Played in blustery wind which made for an extreme challenge. The course has a nice variety of challenging holes with various lengths and tree lined fairways.

Challenging with Diffucult tee shots

This course is not a walk in the park. Each hole presents a unique set of challenges. It is not a grab the driver and go. The course itself was in ok shape. Some greens were a bit burnt out or sandy. Tee boxes are sparse in areas. Fairways were mostly good.

Great value with a challenge

This course is not long but has plenty of challenge with water, hills, and tight fairways. Greens are in good shape. There was a lot of water on the course due to multiple days of rain. Great value and a good challenge. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Round was quick (3 hours for 2).
