    The best kept golf course secret of the year for me. Truly an A.W. Tillinghast gem. Huge kudos to the Club's ability to maintain the original brilliance of course design. The condition of the course after such a harsh summer was amazing. Very high marks for aesthetics and shot value and possessing the timeless and valued tradition and aura of a Winged Foot or a Quaker Ridge.

    A well maintained piece of golf course history hidden from the outside world.

    Greens and fairways in excellent condition, especially for November golf.

    Members are friendly.
