Excellent use of elevation. Rolling hills and valley shots define this course. It moves beautifully between downhill bombs, tight wooded lines, and uphill grinders. The opening trio sets the tone perfectly. • Great variety and balance. The course weaves between open and wooded, calm and punishing. There are more risk/reward holes than you first realize, especially around slopes and water. You’ll need to choose when to attack and when to take your par. • Standout holes on the back nine. #13 and #15 elevate the course. Both are strategic valley holes with creek danger and uphill finishes. #15 is the best on the property, a true multi-shot thinker with smart design. • Signature water hole. #9 tempts you to run the basket 25 feet from the pond. It’s short but mentally demanding. Most players will bail out and take the safe 3. • Navigation and flow could improve. The course crosses the creek multiple times and criss-crosses itself in spots. First-timers may get turned around. The walk from #18 back to the lot is uphill and feels like a missed opportunity for a stronger finishing hole. • Hidden gem vibes. For a small-town course, this is a surprise. Former golf land gives it space and movement. It feels like an early-days discovery, the kind of layout locals will be proud of. Must-play in the region.
