Golf Channel describes PVGC

Judy Rankin: You're going to see one of the most beautiful golf courses you've ever seen. This is really a feast for your eyes... It's just a beautiful golf course. I envy the members who come here often and play golf. It's not just pretty and gorgeous vegetation, it's a real test.
Tom Abbot: What a great spot to play, beautiful golf course, kind of a hidden gem. They know it well in this area, but let me tell you, it's worth a visit.
