This course was built on a bluff and has a view of downtown Birmingham. The short yardage makes it good for beginners and those wishing to work on their all-around game. The greens are flat, firm and play quick, while the narrow fairways demand accuracy off the tee. The signature hole is #5, a 186-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot downhill and over water. Pull carts are not allowed on the course.

A really great course but tight at times due to the limited space. The par three's are really short many of which you can reach with a sand wedge. Over all the course is in great shape and is really enjoyable to play.

"Beautiful and challenging layout"
The name certainly fit's the layout. The front side of this tree-lined course is tight but somewhat forgiving on certain holes. The front has three par three's and two par 5's making it a par 35. Newly constructed tee's on two of the par 3's, number 3 and 6, make them both over 200 yards. To add to the difficulty #3 plays over water. The 400 yard plus 5th hole was the most difficult, an uphill, dogleg right to a large two-tier green. The backside seem's like water everywhere. It comes directly into play on 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, & 17. Number 15 is a spectacular hole with water along the right that turns in front of the green to make your approach shot about 150 to 160 over water to a large green. Number 17 is a drive over a hill to a green fully protected by a large pond in front and surrounded by a natural bowl around the back and side. This was the most difficult hole on the course. The backside has only one par 3 and two par 5's making par 37. Playing from the blue tee's presents a good challenge for the mid to low handicapper as the course plays to about 6400 yards. The white tees present a nice but fair challenge for the mid to high handicap. Beautiful, quite setting surrounded by woods and farmland. Excellent practice facility, best East of the CT. River. Large, two-tier driving range, three practice greens, one with a fairway chipping area and bunker. Modest clubhouse, a true golfing club.
