Needs better marking! 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Apr 16, 2010 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This is a challenging course with a good variety of technical and long shots. A couple big fairways make for really fun huge throws. Lots of trees and small windows to shoot also. Clear Creek runs along one side of the course, adding some water hazard but making a great scenic backdrop for the course.

Cons:

The course is very poorly marked and the tone poles are in pretty bad shape. We spent a lot of time looking for tees and pins. Unless we played it completely wrong, almost all the poles had the wrong number on them, and many of the tees were missing the hole number. There were some defined pathways and rocks with arrows, but you would be advised to find a course guide if you can.

Other Thoughts:

Lots of trees, water hazards, and long shots just as described - not a con, but definitely challenging. Water would probably be less of an issue later in the year once things dry out. Not sure who maintains this course, but with a little help the rating would go up.
