Pete Dye’s mountain course. Railroad ties and pot bunkers dot a beautifully maintained course that measures 7156 from the championship tees. The rough is thick and penal, with small greens and heavy bunkering / undulations around the green. A true test.

New design lost a few of the best holes like old 15. But there are some excellent challenges including par 5 2nd, a reverse cape hole and drivable 17th. Putting green is a lot of fun too. Must play in Cville.

Very difficult course and penalizing rough. Mint greens that rolled true and fast.
