The Refuge holds a special place in our hearts and anyone looking for a venue should give this place serious thought.

I lost more golf balls playing here than I should probably ever admit. The greens are large and challenging, the views are breathtaking. A couple of the holes you tee off from a platform that was built it a bog. Many of the holes you have to dodge ponds and woods so thick you'll never get your ball back.

I walked 18 holes on a Friday morning early. I didn't have a tee time since I was a single, but…read morewas able to tee off right away. There were a few people in front of me, but the pace of play was fantastic with minimal waiting. No one can complain about 18 holes in under 3 hours! The course is looking better and better every year. All of the bunkers have new sand in them which I made sure to try out four different times to have a thorough review ;). The greens rolled true and had decent speed. There are a few unique holes on this course that require some strategy and shot making to do well. It definitely isn't wide open and there is a lot of potential to lose balls. There are also a few holes that are lined with houses on one side or the other. The typically don't come into play unless you hit a very poor shot. If you are a decent golfer, this is a really fun course. If you have trouble getting the ball in the air regularly, this would be very very frustrating. The only negative is that the bugs were bad. I would suggest taking some bug spray with you. There were two holes on the front nine that are quite damp, and I thought I was going to be carried away by the mosquitoes. The rest of the course were still buggy but tolerable. It may have been due to it still being relatively early and I was walking making me an easy meal.

It wasn't bad but it wasn't great. The garlic butter for the bread was the best thing. The soup was too spicy for me and I couldn't eat more than a few bites. The salad was fine. The shrimp and salmon were cooked well but the toppings were bland. There was way too much rice pilaf and the broccoli was fresh, not frozen so that's a definite positive but it had no seasoning. It was pretty good when I put some salt and pepper on it and whatever the mixed seasoning on the table was. The food could use a bit more seasoning in everything but the soup and butter. The ambience was good and the waitress was great and everyone was very friendly when we walked through the door.
