short, some water, open!! howz that?!?!
pretty much open. lots of straight holes, always a wind
making the holes into the wind a little longer (9 comes to
mind). gets beat up as it gets alot of play. holes 5 & 6
great back-to-back par 5's with 5 being reachable, with a
good drive down the left hand side, in two. nice finish
with 16 (par 5) 17 (straight par 4) and 18 big dog left
(par 4)....all in all, pretty nice course, not the toughest
you'll play on the cape, but you'll enjoy it...

| I pretty much agree with *.1, but think that the course
is average length (6,535 blues, and 6,227 whites). It is
an easy course to walk as it is relatively flat. Don't
be sucker on #13 (280 yard par 4), just hit an iron off
the tee and don't go for a heroic tee shot. Also, don't
hook your second shot on the dogleg left #18, or you'll
end up in the parking lot.

| One interesting hole is #3 - a short par-3 downhill over water to a
very sloped green. I assume this plays shorter than it lists due to
seeing the number of players trying to chip back to the green from
above the hole.
One of the best shots I've ever seen occurred at this hole earlier this
year. A guy in a foursome two ahead of us plopped his tee shot into
the edge of the pond that fronts the green. He takes off his shoes and
socks, marches into the water, takes his cut at the ball, and sinks it
for a deuce. I saw at least 11 people give him a standing ovation.
