Course Tour
Hole 1
The first hole is a short par 4 with water on the left and trees on the right. The green is fronted by two large sand bunkers and a creek that crosses in front of the green.
Hole 2
The second hole is a par 5. A small creek runs the entire length of the hole crossing the fairway 310 yards from the back tee. The drive is guarded by a fairway bunker on the right and the creek on the left. A second fairway bunker (not shown on map) comes into play on the left for the second shot. A large pond guards the right approach to the green and a large sand bunker the left approach.
Hole 3
A long par 4, the #1 handicap hole. The fairway is guarded both left and right by trees. The long second shot is to an undulating green with a bunker on the right.
Hole 4
A par 3 with the tee shot from an elevated tee to a slightly elevated green. The right-to-left sloping green is guarded by bunkers both right and left.
Hole 5
A par 4 with trees on both sides of the fairway to catch errant tee shots. The green is bunkered on the left and slopes slightly right to left.
Hole 6
A short par 4 with a large fairway bunker on the left. The tee shot is blind and should be aimed just right of that bunker. The green features bunkers both left and right.
