I now understand why courses are inactive sometimes. I wanted to play 18 holes and figured I’d try this one. However, I got lost a couple of times and was not expecting to be out that far deep into the trees. It was a hike all around and definitely got my elevation in. If I were to come back, I’d rather just play the top nines twice.

Super fun round, tons of birdie attempts! Only dislikes was the walking between a few of the holes and some of the tee upkeep.
