The design of this course is great. Players should check these things before going.
1) Rained in the past week. This course gets flooded all the time.
2) Wind: Always windy. Calm for Beaver Island is windy everywhere else.
3) If in the summer, ticks are here. I have found ticks on me twice going to this course (I am not that bad...)

Ideal conditions this is course is an A- in my book, but that rarely happens in my 20+ times going here. Almost had my first Ace here as well, hit the chains and popped out on 16.

First time ever playing. Well populated area but others were friendly or kept to themselves. Had a young guest with me so we did an abridged game to test it out. Due to all the rain a little swampy. C ... show more ›

First time ever playing. Well populated area but others were friendly or kept to themselves. Had a young guest with me so we did an abridged game to test it out. Due to all the rain a little swampy. Clearly labeled tees with signage and garbage cans; only negative was there wasn't a marker for the shorter tees

This course is my favorite in the wny area. Open shots and some in the woods. Many out of bounds to avoid nesting birds. From Memorial day to labor day there is a fee of $7 to enter the park. If you g ... show more ›

This course is my favorite in the wny area. Open shots and some in the woods. Many out of bounds to avoid nesting birds. From Memorial day to labor day there is a fee of $7 to enter the park. If you get there before 8am, or after 5pm the attendant is normally not there and you can enter for free. The park and the course are the most well maintained in the area. Bathrooms are available at the start and halfway points, course ends close to where you begin with no overlapping. Strong winds are common and make up for the lack of trees that others complain about. Many elevation changes, only a few water hazards. Pars are not updated on the signage, but otherwise accurate (just google the scorecard). Cement tees (blue, white, bricks mark the red). No real bug problem, with heavy rain it can be squishy at the first few holes.

Course plays as a "different" type course almost everytime you play it...WITHOUT GIMMICKS! Challenges include wind (breeze frome the east off of the Niagara River can be a challenge), elevation, trees, distance and slope. Think it is getting too easy...move to the blue tees... that, by the way...are concrete padded (as are the whites) so a sure footed drive is a given. Course is marked well with a good traffic pattern for ease of navigation...Beautiful scenery and a well manicured course make this a must play.

It's a pretty long course with mostly open holes, great for developing your long arm. Not too much variety, like tight and technical shots. Grass was cut nice and short, well maintained fairways. Good ... show more ›

It's a pretty long course with mostly open holes, great for developing your long arm. Not too much variety, like tight and technical shots. Grass was cut nice and short, well maintained fairways. Good use of elevation and some sloping fairways and greens. Great cement tee pads for both White and Blue tees. Overall, great course and had a lot of fun there.
