Played here a few times now and it’s challenging but playable. Significantly more challenging if the wind kicks up. I think I like it but I don’t love it. Greens had been punched yesterday and they also lost a couple of the greens and had them patched with sod.

My favorite course in the state. Always in great shape. People are friendly and it’s a great price that honestly should be $20-30 bucks more but I’m glad it’s not
