“Excellent layout variety giving big brother Blue a run for its money. Great stretch of “outside 9” holes (6-14 thru the tunnel) with fantastic use of water and contoured front sloping greens."

Review

“Kind of a quirky course. The greens are a bit too sloped for modern green speeds. Many members will tell you they prefer the gold over the more famous blue course. Not sure how they draw this conclusion except it's probably easier and the pace of play is better."
