Hole	Distance	Description
#1	R 153’ W 190 ‘ B 285’	Course begins with an uphill shot . Don’t let the distance fool you. Shots missing to the left can have the unfortunate consequence of ending up at the bottom of the hill.
#2	RWB 189	A short warm-up hole that reminds you to "keep it low". Several trees give this downhill shot a very low ceiling, making the birdie a little more difficult than you’d think. The adventurous right-hander can try the big hyzer around, but the trees still present a formidable obstacle.
#3	R 160’ W 184’ B 244	Follow the path down the hill and across the street to another uphill shot. The trees and bushes make the roller look good for this hole. The pin is guarded by a bush in front of it, and the toughest rough on the course is off to the left.
#4 Long	R 206’ W 295 B 442	This is the longest hole on the course. The big valley, cage of pine trees, and majestic view make it one of the courses signature holes. Watch out for the wind on this hole, as it can turn your good drive into OB across the road!
#5 White	R 174’ W 256’ B 316’	The early tree line on the blue and white tees makes this a challenging tee shot. These tees are behind the tee sign, up by the entrance sign. This is another hole where the roller looks good. A short right-handed hyzer makes the red tee a good birdie chance.
#6 White	R 258’ W 291’ B 332’	Another tunnel shot where the key is keeping it low from all tees. The pines flanking the pin will reject any high approaches, or they just might keep them
#7	RW 184’ B 244’	The shot from the blue tee is the choice of a low bender to the right, or a straight-ahead tunnel shot. The short tee offers another birdie chance, but be careful – throw too far and you’re down the hill into the upper pond.
#8	RWB 163’	The easiest hole on the course. Throw a line drive through the trees and you have your best chance for an ace or birdie.
#9 White	R 184’ W 250’ B 344’	A long, open shot from the blue and the white tees. The red tee offers early trees. Be careful on the approach, or you will end up OB, down the hill into the park road
#10 White	R 256’ W 306’ B 316	Each tee on this hole gives you a completely different shot. The blue tee has trees immediately that require an accurate line drive. The white is pretty open, with a narrower gap half-way there. The red tee makes you keep it low, under the tree umbrella. Any way you get there, the pin is precariously located on a mound, which makes you a little less aggressive on your approach.
#11	RWB 217	Another birdie chance, but it isn’t a gimme. The early trees make you throw it straight, and the fairway tree forces you to keep it low.
#12	RWB 200’	A short, open, downhill hole. The pin is guarded by one tree, and its placement on the hill makes you get your distance right.
#13	RWB 260’	This one is uphill and through the pine row. The pond on the right comes into play, as is evidenced by the new "plastic liner" it has received since the course went in.
#14 White	R 170’ WB 295’	A nice, straight, open shot. The only difficulty is guessing what the wind will do with your straight shot today!
#15 White	R 250’ W 304’ B 350’	This is a fairly open shot across a valley. The longer tees force you to shoot around or under tree branches. This hole starts the toughest part of the course for wind, as you are getting closer to the lake. The wind is often different at the tee than it is toward the pin.
#16 White	R 240’ W 360’ B 435’	This is probably the toughest hole on the course. The wind, fairway trees, an uphill approach, and a pin placement at the top of a hill all make you very glad to get a three here.
#17 White	R 165’ W 263’ B 373’	This is a nice long open hole, with an uphill approach guarded by trees with low branches. That makes birdies rare from the long tees on this hole.
#18	RW 332’ B 402’	This is a tough shot. The blue tee (to the left and behind the tee sign) requires the air shot to slip though a narrow gap, or a roller. The red-white has you trying to split through two trees just right, and gradually fading right toward the pin. The approach goes back uphill. Well, that’s it, how about another round?
