“Tree lined course that allows for play with the wayward shot. Too many punchout shots to wedge distance in a round can lead to some boredom and under-appreciating the routing. Recent tree removal definitely has improved sight lines and playability."

“This is a wonderful old club with an excellent course. It is built over very hilly terrain but is also walkable. The clubhouse is expansive with excellent food."
