Played there for the first time today under blue skies and no wind….and enjoyed every hole in terms of playability (wide fairways—thank you, Jack Nicklaus!), beauty, and challenge (primarily because of WELL-bunkered greens that require your BEST green-reading abilities). Practice facilities are excellent, and are right outside the pro shop door. You can pretty much choose your challenge level, with tee boxes ranging from rating/slope of 62.8/108 (green tees—4506 yds) all the way up to 75.9/146 (black tees—7188 yds). I can hardly wait to return!

A very special course. The first five holes will be remembered for the rest of your life, playing down-to and within a stone's-throw of the ocean. The first hole is a sweeping par 5, very reachable, but---watch out! The bunkering is intimidating and pin placement needs to be paid attention to. "On in regulation" can lead to an easy bogey if your first putt is rushed. And this is just the beginning! Savor every hole! #6 leads you away from the coast and back into the hills. You'll be challenged with every shot in your bag. Expect nearly perfect lies everywhere in the fairway. Spyglass is an "old" course (about 45 years) but is not out-dated. You won't be disappointed you played here.
