What a terrific golf course! Tucked into the hills 3.5 miles from the city of Brookings, this gem of a course was so much fun to golf. After reading several reviews in which other golfers reported the course was "challenging" or "extremely challenging", I felt a little intimidated. The drive to the course is lovely and the setting, with trees and water hazards, actually reminded me of our home course. Sure, those steep cart paths to some of the tee boxes can make a first time visitor take pause, but the course was a joy to play. As we stood on the first tee (I was hitting from the green tees) I made the decision to not try for any hero shots, but rather set up to get over whatever hazards we came across. Wayward balls can be easily lost forever here, especially on the back tees on 8 with that narrow chute. Also, they had just punched and sanded their greens a few days before we played, but they weren't bad. This course is definitely well maintained and it shows. We can't wait to play here again on our next trip to the coast.
