First Time Playing

This course has very nice well maintained greens although the second cutting off the fairways need to be a little shorter.

The staff and course was great. They need alttle attention to the second cutting around the fairways. They are alittle long and keep losing my balls in them. We had a wonderful time and would go there again.

Nice course to play

Nice layout. Maintained. Tees, fairways and greens in great shape. Greens have some undulation to them making putting interesting if you get on the wrong side of hole.

This course has challenges for all calibre of golfers.

The course was in excellent condition, even for early Oct.. Players need to be aware of the hidden hazards as there are some elevation changes creating blind shots.

This course is pleasant to play. The staff was extremely accomodating.

I have played this course several times since Aug. I have enjoyed every one of them. The staff has always been pleasant and will continue to play the Loon and the Lakes when I go to my summer home.
