Comments: Very popular, friendly course. . . Not a classic design but kept in excellent shape. . . For all the challenge from the tee and fairway, the greens are generally flat. .. Very fair to the once-in-a-while player... Scoring usually good here. .. Facilities excellent at this popular Dublin park­land course. .. Clever use of water hazards.
