Bit of a tweener

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 18, 2022 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Beer on site obviously. To walk from 9 to 1 you can easily walk past the bar for another bevy.

Nice use of elevation throughout and great use of the available space generally. Short walks between holes.

All holes are at least a little wooded, some more so than others.

Hole lengths for short tees are ~200' and for long tees around ~250+, some a bit longer. Can have a good time with just putters from the shorts. Ace runs for days with the bros.

Place is pretty well kept up, though the back 4 or so definitely are a little less broken in then the front 5.

There are not exactly long and short tees for all 9 holes, but there are for most of them so you can have a bit of a full 18 experience, but honestly they don't make that much of a difference.

There's also a separate set of putting baskets if you'd like a different type of drinking game.

Cons:

The only complaint for me is that it's not quite hard enough to warrant a full bag but not quite easy enough for me to feel totally comfortable with my putter.

The elevation can be a little intense in a few places. It's not just a casual walk in the park, so you might spill your beer or in my case have some complaints from the kids.

The course gets pretty full and can feel kind of compact but they do a nice job keeping teepads away from landing zones.

Other Thoughts:

Technically you're supposed to check in and buy a beer or pay some sort of entrance fee before playing but I've never had an issue with just walking up, the brewery is almost always packed.

They're building out another 9 holes as well which looks pretty promising, stay tuned!
