January. A cold, bright, blue-sky morning, the kind where your breath hangs in the air like a thought you haven't finished.
My neighbor Gail and I have a rivalry. It began over a leaf blower and has since expanded to every competitive arena available to two grown women. This morning it was putting.
Hole 9. Gail had a ten-footer, slightly uphill, a break she read perfectly. She made it. She did a little dance. I will not describe the dance.
I needed comfort. I needed warmth. At the turn, on the patio, I needed the Chicken Biscuit Sandwich.
Crispy chicken, with a crust you can hear across the table, set on a warm, flaky biscuit that comes apart in layers like a good story. Then a drizzle of Mike's Hot Honey, sweet heat seeping into every flake and crevice, the kind of thing that makes you close your eyes in public. Breakfast potatoes alongside, keeping the whole operation honest.
I ate it with my gloves off and my coat on. Steam rose from the biscuit into the cold. Gail watched me and asked, very quietly, if she could have a bite of my hot honey chicken biscuit. I said no.
Then I sank a twenty-two-footer on 10, rode the momentum all the way to the 18th green and won by a single stroke. Gail has not mentioned the dance since.

Came for the putting, stayed for the food. The double smash burger is unreal, crispy edges and that bacon jam. We ended up sitting on the patio for two hours after our round.

Ordered a round of BarTender's Choice cocktails from the course and they found us on the 11th. The Birdie Juice is dangerously good. Already planning our next visit.

The kids ran between the playground and our table the whole time. Tenders were hot and crispy, and they were thrilled with the chips. Easiest family night we've had in months.

Honestly didn't expect a golf spot to have food this good. The ahi tuna nachos and miso salmon were both a hit. The course itself is legit too, real breaks and tiers.

Brunch on the patio before an early round is our new Sunday thing. Chicken and waffles with Mike's Hot Honey, a Hair of the Bird, and a lag putt I'm still bragging about.

Lost at cornhole, won at ping pong, and the wings made up for both. Staff kept checking on us without hovering. Great spot for a group.

The Tequila Creamsicle tastes like summer camp for adults. Paired it with the Korean steak tacos after our round and watched the sunset from the patio. Perfect night.
