The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
Golfers rave about the back nine routed through the old quarry, with dramatic elevation, rock walls and water making for some of the most memorable holes in the valley, and the conditioning is held up as near-legendary. The common knock is that the front nine plays more ordinary.
Consistently praised
- The quarry-floor back nine with rock walls, waterfalls and big elevation change.
- A conditioning reputation that rivals the most pampered courses anywhere.
Worth knowing
- The front nine plays more pedestrian than the spectacular back; private access.
Golfers recommend
- Save your camera and your energy for the back nine, where the drama lives.
- Respect the 300 feet of elevation change when judging club selection.
