This club has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 5th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. The Gray Hawk Course opened in 1996, and it has wider fairways than the older courses. Hole #6, a 573-yard, par 5, requires an approach shot into a narrow landing area with 200-foot tall trees bordering the fairway and green. The Blackbird Course requires both accuracy and length in order to score well. Hole #8, a 212-yard, par 3, requires a tee shot onto a green that is virtually surrounded by water. Shotmaker's need to hit the green or land well short to be safe. This course has long, demanding holes with plenty of water and sand bunkers protecting the greens and fairways. Hole #4, a 557-yard, par 5, plays into the wind and requires a tee shot over water and onto a long, narrow fairway. Reaching the green in two on this hole will require a pair of big shots.

Great experience, May 27, 2005 |

| On the brink of becoming a great course. My hat is off to the owners, this course is privately owned I believe, for sinking their money into course and clubhouse. They make improvements every year and do it right, including very attractive beverage cart girls. |

Challanging and well manicured...you wont be disappointed, Apr 23, 2004 |

| I've played this course several hundred times. We have a standing weekend tee time. The course is challanging and well manicured. With 27 holes, you're constantly playing a different layout. No gimmick holes. Good layout and rolling hills. You won't be disappointed. |

| The course is well maintained and the greens are fast and contoured. The back tees play over 7,000 yards long. Green fees are a little pricey. Red Feather and Blackbird are far more difficult than Grey Hawk. Grey Hawk is shorter and more forgiving. Blackbird is very long and the topography is hilly. Red Feather is the flattest of the 3 nines, but it is very tight and water does come into play. Most greens have lots of roll to them and require well placed shots in order to score well. The course was enjoyable to play. |
