Great course. Good challenge.
The course has a great layout. Front nine plays like a mountain course. The back nine was more flat. Grab snacks. The snack bar wasn’t open. The pro shop didn’t know if the snack at was open and left it up to us to check.
A hungry back nine, but still had a great time.

Nice potential
Enjoyed the course. No D range is unfortunate. Played after some big rains, so wasn't able to play my best, but likes the terrain.

Decent greens, some tough holes
I found the first green a little bumpy, but the rest were pretty good. Does not have a real range. Still worth the hot deals on golf now.

Great course!
One of the best courses in the Charlotte area for the $. I highly recommend you make the 35 minute drive north and play this. You will not be disappointed…or poor. Much much better than courses like old sycamore that charge $80
