“Old school course, always in great shape, decent stretch of holes on the back 9. Fun to play."

“This club seems almost perfect in every way. While the course itself won’t unduly challenge a good player, it is immaculately maintained and easy to get around, even i you walk. Unless you are seeking a brutal examination of your game, this is about as good as it gets."

“One of the most impressive clubhouses and overall facilities in the country. The clubhouse is huge and classy with lots of wood paneling, bowling alleys, a fitness center, and several dining areas. Great pool and tennis facility. The original Harry Colt design was redone by Tom Doak. It is flat but challenging due to good use of fairway and greenside bunkering. Lots of good doglegs make it play tighter than it looks. Great club for families."
