Always a challenge

Nice course with plenty of variety. Tough holes, especially on back nine!

Too bad!

This course used to be packed almost always. A new park manager cut off the money and hired a terrible free keeper. She moved on and the green keeper did too. They left a terribly maintained course. What a shame! The layout is very good and challenging. I will not play there again until it improves, if I live long enough!

Lousy green complexes

The course is very scenic at times, but the greens are just to difficult. It takes the enjoyment out of the round. That is why no meaningful tournaments are held on courses like this!

One of the best

I've played the course many times, and it's one of the two best up here. Great layout and good variety of holes.

Glen lakes

Course was in pretty good shape. Greens were tough to read, but fast and fair. I probably should have moved up to the gold tees. Will next time. The back nine is plenty tough. I would recommend to anyone.
