Played this course on April 2 for my third time. I really like the layout and the scenery. As a fairly new golfer it is challenging, with narrow fairways, and lots of trees. All my interactions with staff and fellow golfers on the course were excellent. Everyone was friendly and down to earth. I will be back!
