What's the most memorable or challenging aspect of playing Sandy Falls?

Without a doubt, it's the dramatic elevation changes and the strategic bunkering around the titular 'Sandy Falls' on holes 7 and 16. The course designers masterfully integrated the natural rock formations and sand traps, demanding precise shot placement to avoid a watery grave or a tricky sand save.

After a round at Sandy Falls, what's your top recommendation for a local bite or drink?

Skip the usual clubhouse fare and head into the nearby village of Oakhaven, just a 10-minute drive. 'The Rusty Putter Pub' is our go-to for a cold local craft beer and their incredible poutine - it's the perfect way to celebrate (or commiserate) your round.
