Quirky. Fun. Unique. REally cool place. Not sure I could jsutify ranking it in the 8s, definitely not 9s, because it simply doesn't stand up side-by-side with other courses I have in that range. Clsing note: this might be the best hickory course around.

Joined this year and couldn’t be happier. It’s a short course but don’t let that fool you. The greens will test you and the need to be accurate is required. Fun private summer course with great staff, with improvements making it better year by year.

The front nine - especially from the back tees - is a Silva masterpiece. Plays way longer than the card and is - in my opinion - punctuated by the approach into the 5th (a par 4 Redan) and the green complex on the 7th.

Just a very frustrating layout. Dog legs and hazards everywhere make driver a non-option on many holes. Very mediocre greens and iffy conditions.
