Opened in 1999, this 18-hole masterpiece seamlessly blends challenging play with stunning natural beauty, making it a standout destination for golfers seeking both a test of skill and a tranquil escape. Fazio's design philosophy here emphasizes strategic shot-making, utilizing the natural contours of the land, mature trees, and subtle elevation changes to create a memorable round.
The course is characterized by its immaculate conditioning, undulating greens, and thoughtful bunkering that demands precision. Each hole presents a unique challenge, often requiring careful club selection and strategic placement off the tee to navigate doglegs and avoid hazards. The layout is designed to be enjoyable for players of all skill levels, with multiple tee boxes allowing golfers to choose a yardage that suits their game, while still offering a formidable test from the back tees.
