Great value. Beautiful course.

It's hard to find a better view on a golf course than the view that surrounds you when you get to the middle of the back nine where you see the lake in every direction. I really enjoy it here bc not only is it a great value but it can also prove to be quite a challenge especially from the blue and gold tees. Most of the fairways are well guarded and tree lined whether it's a short par 4 or a double dogleg par 5. So staying in or very near to the fairway from the tee is a must if you want to have a chance to score low. There are also some devilish pin positions that can give you fits if your approach doesnt find the correct level. I enjoy the challenge and when you combine all of that with quick greens that really roll true on the line you choose, you get a very fun golf experience.

Challenging

Fantastic golf course. My first time there. I mis clubed several times of the tee resulting in a bad score. Now that I have played it, Next time should be better. Definitely target golf. Drove 2 Hrs to get there. Now one of my favorite courses to play.
