Hidden gem.

Ashland Golf Club is a great test of golf for a course that isn't extra-long. The conditioning is excellent and the greens are fast most times of the year. For me, a test of a great track is that after you play it the first time, you remember every hole. In other words, this course has tons of character -- different kinds of challenges, elevation changes, and perhaps most notably, a creek that winds throughout the course impacting twelve of the holes (7 on the front side, 5 on the back), As if that's not enough water, a different creek separates the 13th and 14th par fours, and the par five 15th has it's own pond fronting the green. Only #1, #8, and #17 are waterless. Be forewarned about the difficulty of three of the front side's par four holes; the 1st, 4th, and 7th all have greens that slope dramatically from front to back. Avoid being above the cup, especially with a front pin. Yet the greatest obstacle at AGC are the trees. If you don't have a reliable punch shot, left-to-right and right-to-left, you may be in for a long day and high score if you don't keep it down the middle. AGC is a special course, and in a day when many courses are suffering reduction in play, this gem seems to be gaining notoriety as more people learn about -- and experience -- it for themselves. Add to the course a super-friendly staff and a modest but ideal new clubhouse with an awesome view from its featured patio perched atop the course, and Ashland Golf Club is one you'll want to return to many times over.
