Reviewed: Played on:Mar 18, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

Fantastic equipment: brand new baskets, concrete tee pads, trash cans and benches at some holes. Front nine has great signage, the back nine still has a little work to do, but very navigable using UDISC and posts are already installed so I'm sure signs are close behind.
A few practice baskets to warm up on.
Most holes on the front nine have dual tees and/or baskets
Solid amount of elevation and it's used very well. Design utilizes the space perfectly.
Brewery onsite with cool taproom and great pet friendly beer garden. Additional extras like sand volleyball and food trucks may be available sometimes.

Cons:

Back nine still needs to be worn in a bit, but it is 100% playable and adds variety and difficulty.
If I want to nitpick, it seems like the RHFH shot shape is favored here more than most courses? But that could just be because my forehand is trash so I would prefer every hole be a backhand. Also, if that is the only negative I can mention about the course, that should show how good it is.

Other Thoughts:

Do you like to have fun? If yes, come to this brewery, get a beer or two and play the course. The course is wonderful, the beer is great and the atmosphere is enjoyable for you and anyone you're with. On the walk from 9 to 10 you can even grab another beer from the beer garden for the back nine.
The front nine is definitely more beginner friendly, with the back nine adding some distance and difficulty.
There were a few signs telling folks that outside alcohol is not allowed and the course could be pulled if they continue to find evidence of this rule being broken. Don't be the reason this super fun course is removed. Grab one of Highland's fantastic beers, support the people that paid for and installed this course and enjoy that during your round instead of breaking their only (and very fair) rule.
Come play this course, especially now that it's 18 holes. I have no doubt that the rating will continue to rise as more people play here.
