This beautiful golf course is quite challenging as many different levels of holes and layouts are mixed nicely in a relatively short course. But it teaches you that the distance is something but not everything. It is not easy at all either to play and score. #14 and #15 are the highlights. At 14, if you hit too far or too right, you will lose your ball. You also hit the green at once, otherwise your ball can go anywhere after bouncing rocks. At 15, you have a beautiful right-side dog leg hole, beyond a pond alongside the fairway. When you have tail wind, you must try long drive and on-green with second shot. However, in case of strong head wind, you need three consecutive accurate shots to find green as its fairway is narrow.
Airplanes flying over every minute may annoy you, but not much.
It is one of the few courses that I wanted to come back again. I walked but like to recommend ride to focus on your play. It is quite hilly.

Good course with some blind shots and well care green. The only issue was they didn’t have a starter so some people jumped in front of us on 14.

Great view of the city, decently easy to get on. Weekend pace (Sat at 12:40pm for 18 walking - 4:15) not bad at all but should be faster for a short albeit challenging course. 3rd is a mess to find if you're new and 15th, a menace regardless of familiarity. All in all, an okay course (12th was very kind to me) but there are others that can be played for about the same price ($55 walking) or less in the area with arguably better conditions (across the board - tee box, fairways, greens), even on the front 9. William Devine, George Wright, Newton Comm, Brookline / Putterham, etc.
