Great Course!

We happened to catch the Stadium Course on an extremely windy afternoon. So needless to say it was really tough sledding out there.

This course is not a wide open bombers course. It's a strategic and accuracy driven course. Even from the blue tees, it's not scary long...but you have to hit the fairways! Fairways is the key to playing well here. You can attack greens with short irons if you hit the fairways. If you don't hit fairways...you're hitting out of pine straw, sand, out from under trees, or a thick rough...or maybe even dropping cause you hit the water.

But the experience is great. Great staff up front, AWESOME practice facilities (make sure to hit a few shots out of the sand bunker onto the range...you'll need a few of those shots for your round), and just an overall beautiful property.

I'd recommend getting there 2 or 3 hours early, eating lunch on the patio, browse the clubhouse/locker room, putt and chip, then hit a bucket...and get after it.

We walked and our caddies were okay. They were both young, and took pride in their job...it was just a tough day on everyone with the windy conditions.

This is not a course that will wow you with views like a Pebble or Whistling Straits, so don't expect that. That would be my only complaint...is that they charge the same rate as those places, but the course doesn't have a huge wow factor. It's just a really skinny, challenging course. 16, 17, and 18 are 3 of the coolest holes you can play in the US...so really soak those in. Enjoy!

Solid, but didn't live up to the hype...

Positives - Good experience, and some of the most scenic golf I've played. Great layout, great greens, friendly staff, solid manicuring.

Negatives - for the prices/rates I expect a tight ship and a first class golf experience. Tee times don't exist I guess...as the same time we were supposed to tee off, a 5-some was at the box at the same time. The practice area is sub par (chopped up turf, small putting green, chipping area was a long way away and not maintained). Empty water coolers on the course. Lots of unrepaired divots on the greens.

My overall advice would be to play a twilight rate or grab a cheap Golfnow tee time. Don't want my review to scare people away, but to lower the hype of it being one of the top public tracks in the state. It's worth a play if you're nearby, but def not worth the $94 regular rate.
