The course I play the most has a lot of "grief" built into it, but is still a fun course to play. Water comes into play on the right side on 13 holes. Not real deep water, but the bottom has a lot of moss that hides the ball. The other five holes can have water if it rains enough, but most of the time those 5 have a dry wash, with a lot ball eating brush available. The left side, on all 18 holes have people's fenced back yards. The fairways are some what narrow. Maybe 25 yards +/- ? 7 holes have elevated greens. 14 holes have trees that come into play if you miss the the fairways. 10 holes have slopes, that if you miss the fairway right, the ball can run down the slope into the water. Most all the greens are are on the small side, with the largest (guessing) probably under 1200 square feet. Lots of waste areas to catch errant ball flights. Sand comes onto play on 14 holes. They also have dog legs on about half the holes. It has 4 par 5s, 9 par 4s, and 5 par 3s. (par 71) A few of the greens are tiered.

So, I have to say I like all the various obstacles that can be built into a course.
