Course Highlights

This is a fun course with lots of elements at play such as changing elevations, parkland features, and links styled holes all in one.  Its a lot of variety but this all feels cohesive.  There is a lot of variety in the style of holes also.  Basically zero housing or buildings on the course.  Conditions of everything were good across the board.  A large and very nice clubhouse has a fully stocked pro shop and caters to many types of events.  Full food and drink menu available.  New shared driving range with Mill Run under construction at time of our review.  Please note: Mill Run is a more budget friendly sister 18 hole course that is a nice additional option.

Sand traps and tee boxes were in good condition while fairways and greens were very good.

Playability

8.9

Very interesting hole designs right from the first hugely elevated tee box.  Great variety of directions and lengths.  Minimal blind shots and forced carries.  Lots of room on most holes.  Good level of risk reward.

Visual Impact

8.8

As previously noted, some great visuals starting with a several big elevated tee shots.  Good use of trees, water, sand traps, and mounding throughout.  Most of course has zero housing or other buildings visible except clubhouse.
