Beautiful, short, but challenging course 2+ years
Reviewed:
Updated:
Played on:Nov 26, 2021
Played the course:5+ times
Pros:
Balanced number of open or semi-open and wooded holes.
Long holes 3 & 6 are there to keep advanced players interested. Us newbies are still bogeying the par 3s, but we see hope. Even the potential to improve on the long holes.
Very beautiful property with rolling hills, groves of trees, open and slanted fields, a small creek that is not oppressive, historical landmarks (belonged to a German farming family for centuries).
Easy to get to and away from on your way to/from Shenandoah National Park via Rte 211.
Between May 2021 and November 2021, new baskets have been put in, and several tees have been rehabilitated.
There is a practice basket and large open field (fenced) near the picnic pavilion. If no one has reserved the space, it appears you can use the field and the practice basket together as a practice hole.

Cons:
Par 3s will feel dumpy after awhile. The best of them (I think) are 1, 4, 5, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17.
Other Thoughts:
For the novice and recreational player, the course can be challenging on several holes. However, it's a fair course IMHO. Even though I managed to lose a disc under fall leaves when driving off no. 17 a few years ago. Just unlucky.
