Hartefeld opened as a CCFAD until memberships were sold. Even after it became private, the restaurant was open to the public. I think it's a  pretty good Fazio course. I've never played Mountain Branch.

Joe-As usual a great set of photos. The # 3 hole at Mountain Branch looks really unique with the cross bunkers providing definition to the split fairway. Plenty of options and some solid greenside bunkering as well. Looks really good on the whole albeit some tree clearing is probably in their future.
