This beautiful course is located in a valley surrounded by majestic mountains. This is a target design with tree-lined fairways that vary in width. The greens are medium in size and speed, and the tee boxes are elevated. There are lakes, creeks, ponds, and rivers that come into play throughout the entire course. The signature hole is #8, a 397-yard, par 4, which has a spectacular view of the mountains. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 2nd "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996, and ranked it as the 2nd "Best in State" course for the years 1995 through 1998. In the publication's category of "Top 75 Resort Courses" it was ranked 60th. There is a separate, slightly higher green fee rate for non-guests. Guests may reserve a tee time with their hotel confirmation number. Carts are required during the summer.

Gorgeous Layout, May 30, 2004

reviewer: Ray Turner from Fruitland, Idaho USA

This course is a little pricey, especially for Idaho, but it is rapidly becoming one of my favorite destination experiences. The variety of holes and the scenic beauty make it a must play at least once per year. The green are medium sized to large and somewhat slow and the sand traps in poor condition. But, the elevation changes and challenges created by the combination of water, trees, sand and scenery, make this a truly fun course to play. Don't miss it if you are in the area.

"Golf at a value"
Occ. golf course is a nice course if you are looking for value in a round of golf. The course is always in good condition, the staff is pleasant and the course is enjoyable, yet not easy, if you play it from the blue tees. The course is adequately and accurately marked with yardage to the greens. The front and back nine are very different and thus give some variety to the round. It is no Pinehurst, but those that play there love their golf and know proper golf etiquette. It is a real value for the dollar.
