This course was built within an old wash. The fairways are narrow because they are bordered by a high and thick cut of rough. In addition, the large greens are fast and easy to three putt. An accurate tee shot is needed on hole #3, a 142-yard, par 3, which plays over a section of water.

I had one of my worst golfing experiences at this course. First, the lady inside couldn't find our tee-time. When she finally figured it out we got to experience the fine skills of the starter. We would have started on time until the starter put a group in front of us who were late for their tee-time from a half hour earlier! Then he gave us attitude because we pointed out that we were there on time and he shouldn't put a group in front of us. Well, it turned out they were buddies so he just let them on. Needless to say, we left and haven't been back since. I don't recommend this course at all!

Three Rivers Golf Course
"Great Winter Golf"
This is a course that will reward a good shot and put you down for getting lazy, Greens are much faster than they look, but run true. Well managed and it does get a lot of play

Briar Creek Golf Course
"Enjoy Golf Again or The Way Golf Used To Be"
Briar Creek Golf Course is a fun course to be played by both medium and high handicap golfers. Its layout is a chalenging mix of 18 holes fit in a flat land leading up to the creek with hillside on the other side of the creek. Several ponds and sandtraps provide hazards to avoid while the greens are usually the best in the area. The drawback is its distance at only 5300+ yards and so low handicap golfers should play it but only to enjoy the chance at chasing a par round of 70. The true delight of this courses is its playability and round playing time of around 4hrs. There is no long slow play at Briar Creek due to its layout. The three finishing holes on the front nine include an par 3 island green, a drivable par 4 with trouble to the right and "catcher's mitt" sandtrap to the left and a par 3 number nine. These three can yield 3 birdies or a bogey or two. The back nine has a similar opportunity for success or failure with a short par 5 number 15 which with a good second shot has you shooting for eagle or a bad second shot gets sucked into the creek and you are fighting for bogey or worse. Number 16 is an uphill par 3 that winds will control alot of your success followed by a downhill par 4 number 17 that I consider the course's signature hole. A tiny green that seems to be drivable but you must carry a pond and a creek so a 5 wood or a mid iron off the tee is best to a landing area between the two water hazards. The final hole number 18 is a dog-legged left par 5 with plenty of yardage and trees. The greatest part about Briar Creek is that its fun to play with great people and well maintained greens. The way golf used to be!!
