Review
“An interesting golf course with combination of holes that are tree lined with links style golf as well. I enjoyed the shot placement of having to pinpoint the tee shot on several holes where the fairways were angled from the tee box. The greens were firm and fast and the fairways were in fantastic condition."

“What a low key wonderful course. Has some enchanting holes, like a walk through a wooded park and transitions to a Midwest links style course. The front nine was more memorable, holes 3, 6, 7 and 9 were remarkable. Shot options solid as several risk reward tee shots and second shots. Several tee shots to angled fairway requiring a choice on a line. Greens large and never straight putts. Fairways in best shape out there."
