Built: 1971
Built on gently rolling terrain, the fairways and greens weave and bob their way through the subtle elevation changes and create a dynamic that leads to interesting golf shots both off the tee and to the greens. With trees everywhere, some fairways can get narrow, but the course as a whole is still pretty open in most playing areas. The greens are the highlight of the round, as they're quite fast and can show some teeth with subtle undulation that can be hard to read. They are guarded only slightly by some aptly-placed bunkers. The whole place is beautiful, and the scenic layout also incorporates water on eight holes. It can be a real test for the low-handicapper, as well as a nice track for the mid- to high-handicapper if they're feeling up to it.
