Playing Tips

East, West and South courses are open while North Course holes No.1 and No.2 are temporarily closed, so confirm course availability when booking.;

The mountainous routing produces frequent elevation changes—adjust club selection for uphill and downhill tee and approach shots to avoid coming up short or overshooting.

Bentgrass greens are generally smooth but can run quick when dry, so prioritize speed control and test putt pace on the first few greens.

Many holes run through wooded sections with narrower landing areas, so favor accuracy off the tee (hybrids or long irons) over all-out distance to keep the ball in play.

Soft spikes are required on site, so be sure to wear approved shoes before you play.

Best Season to Play
