"This scenic 18-hole course, with its plush fairways, is one of the first golf courses designed by Robert Trent Jones, one of the game's most innovative golf course architects. Green Lakes State Park's landscape and rolling terrain tests all playing abilities. The course has deep faced bunkers and golfers rarely receive a flat lie. Errant tee shots may be costly. "
