can't comment on conditions but....it's a mix of tight tree lined holes and some open ish holes and pretty flat. Also an odd mix of yardages, whites are 5700 yds, blues 6500 unless they have changed it. Overall a decent course but not one I rush out to play.
6 par 3's, 6 par 4's, and 6 par 5's. All relatively short. More open holes than tight ones, not alot of trouble. Over priced if you ask me.

Yup - concur. That sums it up!Quote:

I love Cloverdale, but Anderson (which I eagerly anticipated forever while seeing its "plans" on a white board in the Cloverdale 'clubhouse') not so much. Too bad too - it might have had good potential, but I have yet to return.

How is the drainage on Anderson? A nice, short and open course might be just what I want to help a beginner build some confidence today - if the rain lets up.
It is in a relatively low lying area and will be soft and soggy if it rains a lot.
