Ed Rachal is surprisingly tricky for its length, especially if you're not precise off the tee.

You'll find a decent practice putting green and a small driving range to warm up, which is all you really need.

What's the most memorable hole at Ed Rachal Memorial, and why?

For us, the par-3 14th hole really stands out-it's a beautiful, challenging shot over water to a well-bunkered green. The prevailing wind often plays a factor here, so club selection is crucial if you want to avoid a splash. It's definitely the kind of hole you'll be talking about after your round.

On weekends, especially Saturday mornings, Ed Rachal can get a bit backed up, as it's a popular local spot. We recommend booking an early tee time if you want to avoid a five-hour round. During the week, however, you'll often find a much more relaxed pace, allowing you to truly savor your game.
