In 1964 the idea was conceived of cutting into the forest to create a golf course. Old-timers scoffed at the notion of golfing instead of fishing, but their skepticism was unfounded. The 140 acre course opened in 1968 and in 1985, nine more holes were added. Then, in 1996, a new clubhouse with restaurant and bar were built and a driving range was added. Travelers can stop in for a tasty lunch or snack.
