Hole Descriptions
The
Front
Nine
Crafted by Bobby Weed, the front nine provides ample opportunities for approach shots to the greens. These greens, generally larger than those on the back nine, exhibit more pronounced undulations. The fourth hole, a par-3, demands a carry over a waste bunker between the tee and green. Notably, the signature sixth hole poses a quintessential risk/reward scenario with water running along the entire right side and multiple bunkers near the green. Following this, the shortest par-4 is succeeded by a devilish par-3, ranging from 99-140 yards, challenging golfers over pristine marshland.

The
Back
Nine
Designed by Gary Player, the Back Nine commences with another picturesque par-4, featuring water along the entire right side. The course’s most formidable challenge, the dogleg left #12 begins with an intimidating tee shot, flanked by water on the left and encroaching trees on the right. Negotiating a long iron approach becomes intricate due to four mounds leading to a small, narrow green. The subsequent four holes present birdie opportunities before a demanding conclusion. The finishing hole is bordered by marsh along the right side of a narrow fairway, requiring an approach to an elevated “table-top” green.
