Great course, maybe my favorite in an area with many great courses. It's heavily wooded, the fairways are well maintained, and off the fairways the woods are pretty open and cleared of underbrush. The course is mostly in old growth forest, and it makes for some really picturesque holes.
Also, the PDGA website info is not current as of writing this (August 2010). Acker's Acres has 30 holes. You can choose to play the original 18 holes or play the back 18 which includes the 'twisted twelve'. The back course is longer (6091') and more difficult. You can pay $5 for 18 holes, $7 to play all 30, or $8 to play all day.
Definitely check this course out if you're in the area.
This course is fantastic. The people that run it are extremely nice. You can feed the trout which was a blast in itself. I believe they have two 18 hole courses. Twisting and turning through the woods..its what the game is about. Worth the drive.
