Mistwood Golf Club

The pro shop is on the left side of the parking lot as you drive in.

All the usual good stuff is in the pro shop at Mistwood.

Locker rooms are accessed through the back of the pro shop.

The huge practice putting green.

I bet 20 people could comfortably putt on this thing at the same time.

There's a separate green for wedge practice - chip and pitch shots. Range balls already there for you.

The driving range was off mats when I was here. Range balls are free with the purchase of the golf round.

There's tables here for dining from the snack shop in the complex. You can also see the heating elements in the ceiling for using the range in the winter.

A pyramid of golf balls is always a satisfying sight at a golf course. These were Callaway range balls.

A variety of targets to aim at.

There's a lounge and bathrooms inside the training complex.

There's a bar and snack shop here too.

The Mistwood Performance Center does club fitting, putter fitting, club repair, regripping, etc. A full-service operation.

A hotdog I had at the snack bar in the training complex, next to the driving range. It was ok, but the color was a little off.

McWethy's Tavern, the restaurant here at Mistwood. It's the building you see first from the parking lot.

A reuben sandwich I had at McWethy's Tavern. It was really good. The fries were cold though and sort of stale. The service was great.

There's a patio area to the left of the building.

Cozy seats

The golf cart here was nice and was equipped with a GPS screen. The course is very walkable though, not extremely hilly or anything.

The cart came pre-loaded with a couple bottles of water in the onboard cooler.

The sign at the 14th tee box, which is the first hole of Kelpie's Korner. It reads, "kelpie - Scottish water-horse demon known to peek it's head above water and devour strayed golf balls. sealbh math dhuit and stay on course!" Sealbh math dhuit is a Scottish Gaelic phrase that means "Good luck!"

Osage-Orange trees run along the cart path of the 14th hole. I hadn't seen one of these before in person. They're about the size of a grapefruit. All part of the mystery and wonder of Mistwood... Which diverted my attention from ball I hit into the water on this 200+ yard par-3.
