Playing Tips

Use the cart’s touch-panel navigation to confirm yardages and pace of play because many holes have clear sightlines that make club selection straightforward.

Play conservatively on the relatively flat and forgiving front nine to preserve strokes for the more strategic back nine.

On the back nine, prioritize accurate tee placement and shot-shaping for downhill shots and doglegs rather than trying to overpower the holes.

Be aware that greens are a mix of bentgrass (typically faster and firmer) and zoysia (slower), so check pin placements and expect variable speeds when reading putts.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) offer the most pleasant temperatures and course conditions, while the June rainy season and peak summer humidity are best avoided.
