Course is quite challenging by its topography however the fairways were a little beat up and it didn't help that the greens were covered in sand due to aeration. Seven out of ten.

Truly a bizzare design. Most greens are very, very large. Some as wide as 150 ft. Others that deep. Some blind shots and 90 degree doglegs. Greens in good condition but slow. Fairways wide and receptive. Staff is friendly and professional. Don’t plan to go back.

If you like difficult and fun golf, and you appreciate golf course architecture (Kelly Blake Moran), then you must play here. Even though this course is a little less on “LSD” than Morgan Hill, crazy features are traded for optical illusions, and intimidation off the tee is traded for confusion as to how best to attack with a driver. You’ll soon find the driver is probably not the best choice off the tee and strategy takes hold. How did he know exactly where to put that bunker? Greens feature varieties of sizes, shapes, and elevation changes. The greens roll a little slow, but true, making the undulations a welcome and exciting challenge, or a roller coaster if you didn’t land it close enough. Brilliant and intuitive design boundaries on the psychological with narrowing and widening of fairways playing tricks on the eyes. It looks like over 250 yards away as it trails off into the distance, but you measure 138 to the flag and scratch your head. The par 5 uphill should be a par 6 when you play it from the blues or the blacks. It’s best to play this course with someone who has played it before. But, if you’re like me and you thought it would be a good idea to play it from the blues, trust your instincts on the blind shot. It goes that way, just a lot farther than you think.
Like a beer and some good eats afterwards? The Turkey Rachael isn’t colorful, but makes you wonder why you never heard of a Turkey Rachael before.

Great course. Sunday morning sprint rate was $75. Carts ran well, course is kept in pristine condition. Greens are immaculate. Just a beautiful course with plenty of water, hills and bunkers to make it very challenging.

Lederach is one of the very best public golf courses in the area with an awesome club house staff and ground crew. Some courses out there forget that a good club house staff and ground crew is a big part of what makes a great course.
