Description
Envisioned by town residents Pat Laffan, Dan Carbo and Shawn Callahan, this course has 18 wooded holes with 'fair' fairways, 12 baskets anchored into rock, more than a 1/3rd of the holes with 25+ ft. elevation changes, and a few fairways with 50 ft. high canopies. There's a downhill par 3 with a 1500+ sqft. bare rock green that slopes away from the tee. The course was built to provide both a moderate challenge to world-class players yet still provide beginning and intermediate players a chance for several pars or birdies during their round.
