Anyone played it?

The quality is reflected in Robert Allenby asking for his co-designer designation to be removed.
In reality its a nice setting but the course is quite perplexing, as i remember it. Forced, short layups off tees followed by much longer second shots. Tooo many doglegs where the fairways camber in the "wrong" direction. The conditions when i visited (10 years ago?) were also very poor....but that could be different now i guess.
Now that the expectations are set, are you still playing it, Toxic?
It’s awful, go to Trentham instead
Ballarat GC is also a better option; a reasonable Peter Thompson course. Ive never played Trentham but the photos look pretty impressive for a country track.
I played it last year and it had rained a fair bit before hand but I found it interesting, lots of different looks, greens were ok. Not sure of the fees but if it's play or not play, certainly get after it.
Sunday is
Beaufort and Trentham at this stage
Trentham is a great track. A couple of back nine par 4’s are up there in my list of favourite holes! A tight dogleg right par 4 with a skyline green and a long dogleg left with a hazard in the right!
Forget Creswick. There was a review about it on another forum which was one of the funniest reads in golf! One photo showed a 6’ long tee on a par 4 Demanding a wood.......with 4’ high grass in front of the tee! It was like a bad dream that golfers get!

beauty is in the eye of the beholder
the collective.
Eye is singular (as you quoted) - very appropriate.
'Just close one eye ........', so said the designer of Creswick
..

in a promotional piece, the suggestion was that Creswick reminds golfers of Augusta, but they need to close one eye. Apparently. I thought you might have heard the quote.
Apologies for being cryptic.
