Meh

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 8, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

+ This course has two sets of tees and an alternate pin location to add some variety to this course. Both tees had tee signs and concrete tees.

+ The baskets are DISCatchers, my personal favorite, though several of them were damaged (the cage is angled or bent up).

+ Very open course that allows you to really air it out.

+ My favorite hole was #12. It's open until about the last 15 feet, where it's in the woods. It's about 300 feet uphill and, in my view, the definite signature hole.

Cons:

- Not a very exciting course, unfortunately. It's an old ball golf course, so it's not too wooded and there's not too much elevation change.

- I'd imagine that it floods very easily. I played during a time of drought and much of the grass was pretty tall.

- Many of the signs on the tee where also damaged, unfortunately. It leads me to believe that this course was installed with a lot of love, but other time maintenance has slowly dropped off.

- While the course tried to incorporate the natural geographic features (like the creek), I still didn't find my round here too exciting. It played like your average city park course.

Other Thoughts:

This may be the only new course I play this year, now that I have two young girls. I've been reviewing courses for over a decade and I think I'm slowly running out of steam and won't have as much time to dedicate to reviewing courses. But it's been such a joy!

In any case, it was great to get out and play here while I was on vacation and my girls were napping. Lake Geneva is a pretty cool place to visit with lots of offerings for families with kids of any age (or even just couples looking for a getaway). I'd recommend it! The drive-through safari was especially memorable.
