I've passed by this course plenty of times and never have it a consideration but a friend invited me, and now i want to play it again. Carts had on board GPS and were in great shape. Range is available and well stocked snack shack inside.

The greens were as good as I've seen in the surrounding area (Laporte to Elkhart), and the driving range is average. The putting green was true to the actual greens. The clubhouse and Pro Shop were nice. My biggest concern is that the fairways were very dry, and the ground on the tee boxes were as well. The fairways that did have grass were cut a bit long for my liking. Overall, for the price we paid it wasn't a bad day. Although we did get behind some VERY slow groups, we completed 18 in under 4 hours. For the price, I recommend this course. The best thing is the chance to complete holes 3-6 without penalty, as they call this "Escaping Alcatraz". Hole #3 is a par 3 with an Island green, a very small one I might add. It takes a very skilled shot to stick this green (I failed, but this was my only Alcatraz flub). The sign explaining this experience needs to be updated, as it looks to be about 30 years old. We had a good experience, may return in the coming years. Recommended for the casual golfer/weekend warrior. We did not get a chance to eat at the restaurant but it looked like a quality place. I would give 3.5 stars if I could, but I'm upgrading to 4 due to the condition of the greens and the Alcatraz challenge.

It is a challenging yet playable course for someone like me. Staff was great. I really enjoyed the island green hole on number 3. Challening and fun. The next is equally as challenging, although it's a par 5. You have trees on one side and the road right on the other side of the fairway. Had to hit a couple of tee shots the last time since I placed one that bounced squarely on the road. I went out with a couple of foursomes, since we had a quasi work group outing. We had a good time and no one felt like this was a course out of their league. Yet it was still challening and fun to play for the better golfers in the group. Nice golfing experience. I want to take my father-in-law the next time we go.
