The course actually closed in May. It was my winter "club'.  They had a reasonable 9 hole rate so I'd go there several times a week when rates and crowds were up elsewhere in the Valley.

IMHO, that's one of those courses that no one should be mourning the loss of. 


The mere fact that it had two tee adjacent to one another, one a par three, that required backtracking the entire length of the hole to get to the next tee should be an indicator.
Over time, the guy in the ideal position derives an advantage, and delivering him further  advantage is not worth making the rest of the players suffer at the expense of fun, variety, and ultimately cost -- Jeff Warne, 12-08-2010
