  There is no such thing as an easy golf course. But if there was, Emerald Lake would be it. Yes, the par-5 #14 over water (twice!) is a challenge. Especially if you really should face facts and play from the shorter tees. But for the most part, the fairways are wide and the greens are large.
  Lots of bunkers, but (with the drought) the sand is super-dry.
  ONE COMPLAINT. Several greens with muddy areas just off the collars. Assuming it’s a result of poor drainage.
  Speaking of easy, this is the easiest walking course in the Charlotte
  area. Never really had to “chug it” uphill.
  Greens are super-fast. Again, maybe, blame/thank the drought.
