This is one gem of a course. It is a hidden gem at that. It has a membership that enables me to get out easily most every day that I want. When there is a tournament at GCC, they have 11 reciprocals to choose from. The course is defined by it's tight fairways. Believe it or not, the head greenskeeper has removed over 300 trees, but yet it is a challenge off the tee. Also the greens are elevated and sloped to make the scoring shot as tough as you might expect from a course 4 times the price of the membership. It features a beautiful atmosphere with a large bar and eating area. The staff are truly professional from the club pro down to the horticulturist that makes every tee box just beautiful.
