Pretty fun course! Some of the fairways need to have a fairway, but I doubt that’ll be changed. I enjoyed myself.

For sure if you're in the area come play this course: lots of shot variety and a pretty piece of property. The owner is friendly and welcoming. That said, I gave the course a 4.0 for several reasons: 1) pads and baskets need updating. Baskets are old Mach 3s that are very difficult to see and do not catch well. I know the old school guys love them but basket visibility is reason enough on a woods course. Tee pads are carpet/Turf. I appreciate how large most of them are, but many are not flat or smooth, and really need to be leveled. 2) course design: this is a fairly old course and at times suffers from an electric shot mix. Some holes, based on Udisc (which often does not match the tee pad signs) are very short par 4s and 5s, one is listed as 283 p5, in heavily wooded and hilly areas. Then, there are a number of 400+ ft par 3s, some uphill, that only a small percentage of players can challenge for birdie. Maybe that is the point, but it makes for uninteresting shots for most. 3) course layout: the hole lines overlap on many open field holes, and confusing baskets is easy to do. 4) this is a private course that costs $10 to play. I would be less critical of a public course, but the bar for pay courses if getting high in terms of quality and upkeep, such that if you expect people to pay then delivera top quality experience. Again, MUCH to like here, but love to see some refinement happen to really max out this great tract.
