In Short
The course resides in the oak-canopied and historic Audubon Park, surrounded by a path enjoyed by bikers, walkers and joggers. It was designed in the late 1890s and opened in 1898 as a private club for the city's aristocracy. The fairways are straight and fairly well kept with occasional dirt patches. There is little rough, and a narrow pond lines holes 8 and 9 (don't worry about losing balls). The greens are well maintained. On many holes, distance markers are tough to find. The fourth hole is the toughest, with two live oaks arching over the entire fairway about 175 yards from the tee off box.
