We are not golfers. Not even a little bit. So I cannot judge the excellence of this course from a golfing standpoint. But I can expertly judge the scenery, staff and cart riding shenanigans.
We went on a perfect 70 degree Saturday afternoon. We rented a cart, which cost us $28 each. We also needed a set of clubs, balls and 4 beers. The staff took pity on our obviously clueless selves and gave us an excellent discount on the clubs, filled a cooler with ice for us and wouldn't even accept a tip. Altogether our afternoon of fun cost $76.
If my husband can't call himself a golfer, than I can't even call myself a spectator. By the end of our adventure, my sweet, patient, non-competitive man was quietly suggesting that I just use this as putting practice. :) I think my average stroke was 13. Haha!
But we still had an absolute blast. The carts are gas powered and zippy and the course was gorgeous. It is located right along Lake Cascade with snow capped mountains as the back drop. There were a lot of hills, trees and sand traps (hence my embarrassing average). Nonetheless it was a glorious afternoon filled with beautiful weather, golf innuendos, and a few moments of panic that the cart was going to tip. read more
