Playing Tips

The course is a tree‑lined forest layout so accuracy off the tee matters more than pure distance to avoid trunks and dense rough.

At 7,128 yards from the back markers the course plays long, so follow the club’s recommendation to use the white tees or consider forward tees if you don’t hit it far.

Water features are abundant and come into play on several holes, so play conservatively into greens and prioritize avoiding water hazards.

Bentgrass greens are generally true and receptive but can be firm on sunny dry days, so focus on distance control and carefully read subtle breaks caused by tree shade.

Many holes are sheltered by trees but exposed stretches can pick up coastal breezes, with wind most noticeable in autumn and winter—check conditions and adjust club selection accordingly.
