This
course, built on the land where an old saw mill once stood, plays through a
hardwood forest. The extraordinarily scenic design features wetlands and
ravines in play on several holes on the back nine. "Golf Digest" rated this
course as the 10th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. The wide
fairways are open, and the large greens are fast. Water hazards (wetlands and
ponds) come into play on seven holes. The most scenic and difficult hole is
#16, a 202-yard, par 3, featuring a lengthy drop in elevation from tee to
green, and requiring a tee shot over the wetland to a large green.
