Fantastic golf course. Great design and has been in great shape every time I’ve played it. Plays long considering it’s a par 70. Railroad track and lack of homes on the course gives it a very traditional feel.

The course has a great mix of risk reward, and can have a good variety of wind effects. Really enjoyed the layout and it was in great conditions
