HVCC is a Donald Ross Masterpiece, May 27, 2004

reviewer: Terry Crews from Opp, AL

From the beautiful slate terrace of the Club, one can look out and see the natural beauty of the Donald Ross designed course. Once on the course, this natural beauty turns into a beast. With the exception of a few holes (3, 4, 11, 12, 16), HVCC is relatively easy tee to green. It is when you arrive on the green that your putting skills and mental toughness are challenged. These magnificent (and recently renovated) greens with classic Ross false fronts, back to front or inverted saucer slopes, and subtle breaks seemingly everywhere around the hole provide you with plentiful mental anguish from three or more putting. If you have the opportunity to be in the Durham area and can arrange a round on this jewel, it will be an unforgettable golfing experience.

"challenging"
A challenge to any golfer. Play it from the back tees and it is all you can handle. Seems like your hitting the ball uphill all day long. A true test of your golfing ability! A well maintained golf course with quick greens.

"Nice, playable course"
This is a nice playable course. Not overpowering in length, it is a good fit for both long and short hitters. I played in February and the course was in excellent shape considering the time of year. Greens rolled nice and true. Staff was friendly.
