This is a beautiful course. The pars are off for the am layout. When you hit your lines and make all the perfect shots and still fall short of the par there is a problem with the parring system. I have never played a more challenging course that wasn’t filled with technical lines so that says a lot about this course. Overall I really loved it and think this course would create a really good pro athlete if it was in their backyard to play daily. One critique is there needs to be arrows or signage navigating to the next tee locations. I understand there are multiple tees but even guiding to the short tees would help an experience player to their tees.

Very open fairways for the most part with a lot of distance. Some VERY long par 3’s. (Good luck, noodle arms.) Good amenities and worth the $4 for admission. Great place for a picnic.
