   Opening in 1921 this golf course was intended to provide Country Club play to the public and it still maintains that today. You will find generous fairways, approachable greens, and well positioned sand traps. It’s not terribly busy during non- prime hours and very reasonable. Driving range is “irons only” and Club House is modest at best. Course is always well maintained and it’s in a beautiful area! A fovorite for players of all levels. See more..
