Incredible course! Definitely favors the forehand, which is fine by me. Would be 5 stars if it wasn't for the lack of upkeep.

Cool course, a few too many 240ish foot holes though.

Give it Time! It’s raw but so much fun, interesting shots nice elevation use incredible pin placements. 5-6 really memorable holes. Stumps are throughout, tees are turf direct on ground but I can tell a lot of love and thought went into this one.

Fun technical course. Heavily wooded. Not beginner friendly

Course needs. Little trimming on certain holes especially hole 9.

One of the best school courses I’ve played. Some really fun shots. Clean wooded fairways and nice elevation. Even my wife had fun!

Extremely fun overall. Doesn’t feel like your playing at a high school. Much better than the original 8 hole layout.

Lots of stumps in the fairway and greens. I had a particularly bad day of kicks for shots that landed in the fairway. Tee pads are a bit slanted or lumpy in places. The holes are well designed and fun to play though, so I’ll be back! Should be really nice once it beats in.

It's very overgrown and some of the paths to the next tees are non-existent...hearing gunshots while finding your way through the woods was not exactly "the vibe" I was looking for either. Pretty views around the athletic campus.

Def not cart friendly. Has potential as it gets beat in. A few long walks between with minimal directions.

Course is very fluky. Perfectly thrown tee shots and upshots are frequently rewarded by rolling down the sloped greens into circle 2 or ob or jail. Course has lots of potential but that's it.

Great course

Have played the course twice now in the past couple of weeks. I love the variety of shots and the placement required on the par 4s. While it is on the short side for length, the birdies are there but it's not a birdie or die feel. You have to go get them. Well done.

-Challenging for sure -Could cut a few trees and still get the same shot shape the hole calls for - 7's landing zone is too small and then you factor in tree roots... -Not cart friendly -Overall the good tee pads and the variety of shots makes this a above average course

One of the top tier courses in the Upstate area! Fun and challenging for even advanced players. Not too beginner friendly after 7 but throwing 1-6 is fun and tough for most folks. As it breaks in and becomes more complete, this will be a true 5 star course. Pickens DG = Hagood 9 and PE Loop have similar beginner difficulty but different style of shots...Hagood 18 is a tough intermediate, along with Blue Flame, which is bordering on easy advanced.

Great course design! Some truly beautiful holes. If there were stairs on some of the steep slopes it would be 5* no question

Very wooded and some technical shots required. Nice walk in the woods and a good hike. Bring water.
