With wide rollercoaster fairways, nice plantings and a beautiful countryside, this course could have been very nice... However, just like PhilT described in his comments below, there are some displaying bugs, mainly on the tee boxes of the par-5 2nd hole (view through a fence), the par-5 5th, and the par-4 10th holes (both with views from benches), which "force" you to move the tee positions a little bit to have a better view of the fairways ! If you add the wooden steps, hanging in mid-air near the clubhouse on the way to the green of the par-5 18th hole, you easily come to the conclusion that this course needs a little updating... It is too bad because the course is pretty nice visually and is quite challenging too. On the front 9, while the par-4 1st hole, with its downhill tee shot, and the par-3 4th, are nice, my favorite two holes are the gorgeous par-3 7th, with a downhill tee shot over a small valley and a little bridge, and the par-4 8th hole, a downhill dogleg to the left. On the back 9, the view from the tee box of the par-5 11th hole is very pretty with all these flowers, just like the view near the green, with so many bunkers around. Other holes worth mentioning, are the par-4 14th, between two small lakes, the par-3 16th, again with a tee shot over a valley and water, the par-4 17th, with its uphill tee shot and slanted fairway, and, the previously-mentioned par-5 18th hole, with its elevated green. Hopefully, an updated version might be available, one day, to fully appreciate this par 73 course...

Very good course indeed! I rated it 4 stars nice desing and makes you think. some nigglex though! on hole 2 the tee view is through the fencing! and on one other hole its the same problem but not as bad as hole 2, also you get white square grphics in the distance if on medium grphics mode, turn on high and its okay. only small stuff. but the whole is very noce and plays smooth
