Is The Links at Cotton Valley a true links experience, and what's its biggest challenge?

While not oceanfront, Cotton Valley delivers a fantastic inland links feel with its firm, fast fairways and natural fescue.

We highly recommend visiting in late spring or early fall. The temperatures are perfect, and the fescue is typically at its most vibrant, offering that classic links aesthetic without the oppressive summer heat. Avoid mid-summer if you can, as the valley can get quite humid.

What's the one hole at The Links at Cotton Valley I absolutely can't miss, and why?
