Send to a Friend Bookmark It Review It Ask a Question

This well-conditioned course has water hazards coming into play on several holes. Even though the fairways are tree lined, they are wide open. The greens are large and fast. Since the terrain is so hilly, it can be quite a strenuous walk. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the #1 "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. In addition, "Golf Digest" rated it 11th best under the category of "America's Top 75 Affordable Courses" in their 1996 list of "America's Best Golf Courses Everyone Can Play," and ranked it 18th among the "Top 75 Public Courses" for 1990. The same publication rated it as the 18th "Best in State" course for 1997-98. During weekdays, the first two hours of play are reserved for residents. The first three weekends of the season are first come, first serve for tee times, then the club uses the lottery system for setting times. Junior discounts and lessons aer available as well as Senior discounts available for residents. Richter Park is a facility that not only offers golf, but hiking trails, tennis and basketball. It also has an art center, which features outdoor musicals during the summer months.
