Wonderful layout, dramatic views, and angles galore. Course was in perfect shape--greens rolled perfectly and were just firm enough but not too firm. Fairways were wonderful.

For someone who appreciates golf course architecture, this is a must play. The routing is superb and it is a fairly easy walk considering the mountain terrain. The course rolls through the hills forcing club choice decisions with longer par 5s as well as a devilish short par 4. The two par 3s provide absolutely stunning mountain views.

If you're in the area, don't miss this course.

Shh....Don't tell Anyone

Wonderful, Wonderful Donald Ross Layout. Not a resort, but a fabulous GOLF COURSE that is a treasure to play. Like all good Ross designs, this course challenges the low handicapper, but also is wide open for the high handicapper as well. Each shot is an adventure - from tee to approach to short game to putting. This is the type of course that you could play every weekend and never get bored.

Walk the course if you can--will definitely give you an appreciation of the skill of the routing/design. If you are a walking golfer with an appreciation for classic golf course design, do not miss this course.

Donald Ross Gem

Wonderful course, especially if you enjoy golf course architecture. Unlike many of the newer "championship" designs, this course will be enjoyed by every different handicap level. Front 9 features Ross classic turtleback greens. Most shots are straightforward off the tee with plenty of short game options around the hole. Hitting the green is very important. The par 3s are especially stout.

Back 9 totally changes pace. Ross designs every hole to fit into the natural lay of the land. Every shot is its own exploration that must be thoughtfully executed.

Bottom Line -if you enjoy classic golf courses, do not miss this gem.
