Number 13...wow! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 25, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

Beautiful setting in the mountains, great use of elevation, great mix of open and wooded holes, a number of unique holes, 2 candidates for signature holes.

Cons:

Tough to navigate without a guide (threw from the wrong tee/at the wrong basket a couple times), tons of flying bugs (probably the most I've encountered on a course),

Other Thoughts:

A really great course overall, I'd love to play it again. Number 9 was memorable with elevation change and some water to contend with. Number 10 opens up to a wide open hillside after being in the woods for 2-9, and it's pretty spectacular...but not as spectacular as number 13. Number 13 is not easy, but man did I love it. I've been told that signs are in the works, that will help tremendously.

Hidden Gem - Gorgeous property - very fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 7, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Really uses the property well. The variety is there - front nine is pretty technical in the woods with a lot of elevation change. Back nine has some wide open bombers and some good holes to stretch your arm out a bit on. Not well known (yet) so we didn't have to worry about it being packed. Once youo pay the $5 you have access to bathrooms, some lounge areas, and just a very relaxing place.

Cons:

Signage is one of them though they have placed rock trails to help you which do a pretty good job. Tee pads could be a bit longer.

Other Thoughts:

In general this was a really awesome find. We didn't feel like making the hour trip to WhippingPost/Woodshed while camping at Green Ridge State Forrest and instead gave this place a shot since it was only 20 min away. Boy were we glad we did.

This course has serious potential. It's already 3/4 of the way there. Some beautiful tee shots, really scenic views on a very quiet property. The property owner, Juls, is a really nice guy and even helped us look around for one of my errant drives.

Make sure you call ahead, this is a retreat center and when rented, will not allow access to play golf.

We went back a second day to play this because it was that good.

Take a swing by and play this if you have the time, we were kind of blown away, especially since his sons built this like 3 years ago.

We talked to Juls for a bit about adding some dowel rods coming out of the tops of the baskets, adding a donation box, and some signage to which he said he'd get right to working on it. Good dude.

Anyways - check out this spot. Worth it.
