Deceptively forgiving off the tee but even more deceptively penal around the greens. Fairways are generous and the waste areas are very playable. Precise approaches are rewarded but anything less than that will be rejected and makes for a difficult up and down. Greens are difficult to read but every putt stays on line. This was the most mentally taxing round of golf I've ever played, there are no "easy" holes.

The course is extremely walkable. If possible, would absolutely recommend walking and taking a caddie. One other thing that isn't immediately intuitive is that if you have enough length off the tee (i.e. If you hit driver more than 250), I would recommend playing the blue tees instead of the whites as you will frequently have better angles to the already reasonably wide fairways. This is particularly important as the angle of approaches to these challenging greens makes more difference than perhaps any other course I've played.

No. 2 is a true "bucket list" course. If you are able, I would not hesitate to play this truly unique track.

Surprisingly fun layout. Greens were in great shape despite playing in February.

Only gripe is that there are many blind tee shots which I could envision becoming a problem on a busy day as it was frequently not apparent that the group ahead had cleared.

Pros: layout is fun, some straightforward holes, some more challenging; pace of play was snappy, our threesome finished in 3:30 on a Saturday afternoon

Cons: absolutely not worth the price given a number of similar courses nearby; greens were in alarmingly poor condition for this time of year, they were aerated (in August?) and shaggy; cups appeared to not have been recut in a week with circumferential spike marks and ragged edges to the holes; fairways didn't look to have been mowed in days and were much longer than would be expected for a course in this price range

The area has gotten an above average amount of rain this summer, so perhaps this is to blame for the conditions. The layout could provide a tremendous track, but until conditions improve, I'd recommend playing elsewhere.
