Was at the VA for an appointment and some volunteer work yesterday and had time to check out the 9 hole course across the street in the back of the property. While this place won't knock your socks off, it is a fun little layout and beats waiting around in the hospital. Small Quonset hut serves as the pro shop (my green fee was $5). Nice little putting green next to the picnic area. You hit off of mats (which do hold a tee if you wish) for each hole. The course is very green and the greens are large and in good shape. The course is not flat and does have some uphill/downhill challenge to it, in addition to the trees on the course. From the W the course "stretches" to 918 yards. From the B 1144. All the holes are named after famous Generals/Admirals. There is also, a beautiful Japanese garden right next to the golf course, if not interested in golf? The course is self supporting and welcomes donations of golf equipment for the many veterans who live on the property. Check it out, if you are in the area. Great customer service from the staff.
