What a Gem

Very friendly staff and a more interesting course would be difficult to find. Through gates, over roads, around ponds, creeks and cow patties there was every challenge . The fairways were remarkably well groomed (when I could find them) and we had a most enjoyable...More

Unique snow golf experience

Where else can you play golf in the snow with hairy cows hazards? The sheep proof greens are true but challenging. The fairways require skill-full playing to the conditions (ice, snow or water). If you are looking for a challenge try a round with the...More

A privilege to play here

Thanks Michael for making us feel welcome. It was such a privilege to play the course. It doesn't give up pars easily, and the odd chance of a birdie was a thrill. Players need to be aware that the rough will consume your ball, possibly...More
