Ron,
I remember the first time I played there many years ago being a little underwhelmed by the finish (the second to last picture illustrates my last impression)
That of course is merely ridiculous as your fantastic pictures illustrate- an interesting short hole with a green full of great contour and slope.
Be easy on me, it was early in my hidden gem career..
at that point I didn't know many of my favorites (Palmetto, Aiken GC, Athens CC, Augusta CC, Highland Links) were gems-they just were places I enjoyed, had access, or could afford.
Played Kebo Valley on the same trip and though I remember enjoying it, I really enjoyed it upon a return trip a couple years ago.
The great thing about classic architecture being out of vogue 20-30 years ago was it made many of my favorites much more accessible and less crowded
