Hole-by-Hole Descriptions
Reopened in June 2017, the classic 1925 course was restored to its original look and strategy. Suited for every golfer, the seven tees correspond to seven skill groups designated by color and is based on a number of criteria including handicaps, age, gender, and level of interest. This new playing opportunity is known as the “Golf For Life" program.
