sadly a let down after the very nice pano it all went downhill from there , to be honest way to easy and really no course to speak of barely any trees etc makes the whole course very bland , sorry if i seem blunt but i can only speak as i find.

Well, if you want to play a "real" fantasy course, this might well be the place to be ! A1stPoet's wild imagination designed this unusual par 69 near a gorgeous snow-capped mountain panorama with deep rough all around the fairways, very few trees, plenty of sand and a few lakes. After a nice opening left dogleg par-5 hole, with bare land around and the mountains as a backdrop, water comes into play on the par-3 2nd, quite scenic with a big lake behind the green and flat bunkers around. But the "best" has yet to come : on the straight par-4 3rd hole, A1stPoet will take you into his fantasy world : after hitting your tee shot onto the fairway... in the middle of a lake, you will see on your approach shot towards the green, a small and old wooden house (on the left) and a tall... Japanese garden tower (on the right) ! Other "odd sights" will continue on the par-4 5th hole, with an old farm windmill next to a big house with 4 cars parked on the right side of the green... Then, after a right dogleg par-4 7th hole, with a little stream running across the fairway and big trees hiding part of the green, you will face the par-3 8th hole, where sand is the only thing you will see until you reach the green. However, the left dogleg par-4 9th hole will take you aback again, as you get close to the green, where you will admire two ancien stone towers and the... Brussels atomium, on the right side ! After playing this front 9, seeing "WGR-shaped" and "SPA-shaped" bunkers on the fairway of the left dogleg par-3 10th hole, should no longer surprise you... In fact, the nicest surprise, and my favorite hole, is the right dogleg par-5 16th hole, quite gorgeous (and pretty tough) with lakes on both sides of the fairway, quite narrow in the middle. Needless to say, this fantasy course is quite peculiar and it might not be your cup of tea. But, like it or not, A1stPoet did a nice job with it !
