Playing Tips

The course is well maintained with a gentle layout, so keep a steady game plan and use conservative tee shots to stay in play and avoid big numbers.

Greens have subtle undulations—take extra time to read break and focus on controlling speed because putts can be deceptively tricky.

Hilly terrain means elevation changes affect club selection, so take one more club for uphill approaches and consider less club for downhill shots.

Coastal breezes can influence ball flight on exposed holes, so check wind direction on each tee and aim accordingly rather than trusting yardage alone.

Bentgrass greens tend to be smooth; on firm days expect quicker putting surfaces, so prioritize lag putting to avoid three-putts.

Best Season to Play
