Pros: Lake Whittaker is a beautiful, challenging course where the fairways are mowed and the rough is left to grow. It consists mainly of tight fairways with a moderate to heavy amount of trees lining the fairways. There are lots of fun shots on this course, but due to the rough, it's the kind of course a more advanced player will likely enjoy while a newer player could get frustrated.

There are grass tees marked by signs at each hole. There is a sign for short and long tee on every hole. The short pads rarely change the shot and are about 50ft or less from the long pads. With the tall grass, these shorter pads definitely help keep the course more beginner friendly.
Cons: The shot variety isn't that great. Most of the holes are straight or hyzer shots. The tee signs only tell you what number you're on and don't list the distance or show a diagram of the hole. A fair amount of the pins are not visible from the tee so those things could be helpful. It's usually obvious where the fairway is so finding the pin and the next hole isn't too difficult.

I've NEVER encountered bugs at a course like I did at this course. I was eaten alive. I'm sure the bugs are better in the cooler months, but I'd bring bug spray no matter what just to be safe.

A couple of the holes were a little rediculous to me. Holes 4 and 7 didn't have a fairway, just throw and hope you get lucky.
Other Thoughts: The entry fee to the park is $7 for a day pass and they ask for a significant amount of information before you enter the park: name, address, phone number and license plate number.

I found this to be a fun, challenging course but I see how newer players could have a tough time here.

I'm sure the bugs are better at other times of the year, but they were so bad when I was here I almost ran though the course to avoid getting eaten alive.
