About the course
This is the original Bud Hill course AKA the "Hill." Highly ranked and legendary for it's unique designs and beautiful relaxing atmosphere. The scorable yet challenging layout has an excellent variety of open, wooded, uphill, downhill, across-the-valley, water, short and long holes.
Also located on the property is a second 18 hole course - the Harvey T. Ridge. The "Ridge" provides a nice compliment in style to the original Bud Hill course. It is short, wooded, and technical with several mandos and drop zones if one misses the mando.
We would love to meet you and you are welcome to sign the guest book inside the clubhouse. Please rate this course and let us know what you think. Course maintenance volunteers are welcome. You are invited to join us in our potluck lunch after leagues, usually on the first Sunday of the month (TBA on FB).

The course is very well maintained and offers a wide variety of shots. It is challenging enough to be fun for more experienced DG’ers and friendly enough to also be enjoyable for the less experienced. It is the best course I have played in my 4 years of playing
