Hidden Gen
Great course. Only about an hour drive for me but well worth it.
Great conditions and layout.
Mr. Barkley
I really enjoyed the layout of the course. Very challenging tee shots, soft and plush fairways, with smooth/fast/firm greens.
Found the tee time last minute on hot deals. Great value for a fun layout just north of Baltimore. Course was in great shape. Was probably about a 4.5hr round. Saw the cart girl 4 times. Excellent weather. No complaints.
Very nice course
Course in great shape. Greens were excellent. Beautiful views. First time playing there so would definitely like to go back with some knowledge of the course.
Good Old Mountain Branch
Course was in great shape compared to what it used to be. Greens were fast, fairways were in great shape. Definitely worth the money I played to pay there
Awesome course
Great course from tee to green as long as you stayed out of the rough ( we were warned by the starter).
Unexpected Gem
Tried to book Bulle Rock but the course was unavailable. Booked Mountain Branch as our 2nd choice-it will be our 1st choice next time. Great course and staff, good pace for a weekend morning, very pretty layout in great shape. Challenging but playable.
Terrific Course
I'm going to let the rather poor condition of tee boxes go since I'm sure there's been a lot of play by the end of the summer, and after a long hot/dry spell that's pretty much what you'd expect. Otherwise conditions were good even with slower than average greens left to grow longer to protect them.
But the course layout is OUTSTANDING, particularly for a hilly course which nonetheless keeps the elevation changes within reason. And every whole is fair to the player, providing reasonable tee shot landing areas, and approach shots, while requiring you to control your ball. But if you don't hit it straight, expect to lose A LOT of balls into natural areas. (Fortunately, didn't impact me.)
For my money, it's a much more pleasant golfing experience than the nearby Pete Dye design. And less money with just as much challenge for an average golfer.
Great hidden treasure
Mountain Brain is a great course, with a lot to offer. This is my second time playing. The tee boxes were a mess on most of the front nine. But the course overall was in my opinion good condition for the time of year. I really enjoy the friendly staff and ease of getting on the course. I highly recommend visiting this hidden gem!
