We golfed here on the way to Myrtle Beach. We were attracted to this course because it was located on the Blue Ridge Highway and we thought there would be a lot of elevations. There were quite a few. The course was unusual with a large number of blind shots. It was mostly a short and choppy course with a couple long, open par 5s. On one of the holes, the tee box was to the right of the green of the previous hole, which could have been dangerous! But some of the fairways were really tight, protected by trees. Very little sand on the course but lots of trees and quite a bit of water. The first hole had water and was a dogleg so it was pretty challenging. The course wasn't crowded which we enjoyed. It was in decent condition considering the time of year with very fast greens. No cart girl, two nice bathrooms on the course. There were fairway villas and a hotel. The course and hotel is for sale for $185,000, which seems like a really good price. My husband loved this course and we will definitely golf here again if were in the area.

10/27/14...golfed here again on our way to Myrtle Beach. Still a lot of blind shots and choppy holes...because of the leaves, we lost many balls. Because it was a beautiful day, it was more crowded than last year but pace of play was great (except we kept looking for our lost balls!)
