About the Course:

This is easily one of the most visually stunning courses we have ever seen, and if you love a challenge, this is the course, actually two courses, for you. The club is divided up into the north course and the south course, and each one does close briefly during the year (we’ve included that information below for you.) While this may not be a course for a true beginner, it offers a challenge to intermediate and professional players that is rare and well worth the trip.

What You Need to Know:

This is not a course to tackle without a cart, by any stretch of the imagination. The incredible terrain variations make it one of the most unique and difficult courses we have ever played. However, it’s a good kind of challenge, the kind that makes you want to keep coming back until you master the beast, and in fact, you may seriously consider moving here just to do it – we certainly did.

This is a very traditional course, so bring your regular golf attire, soft spikes and best behavior. We loved the fact that a round also gives you free access to the practice facilities and they were some of the best we’ve ever seen. The clubhouse is no letdown either. Easily one of the best courses we have ever visited, and that is saying quite a lot.

Playing Tips:

Your main issue with this course is going to be the natural terrain and the hideous bunkers. Polish your sand wedge now, you’re going to need it. The north course is a tad bit easier, but the south course is a killer, pocked with water hazards, bunkers and some amazing rolling hills.

Our favorite hole was the fourteenth on the south course. Bunkers dot the middle of the fairway, so forget about the old hit it straight and hope for the best strategy. Did we mention there is a precipitous drop on either side? Shoot short from the tee, and hope for the best – you’ll need all the luck you can get with this one.
