Course Map
Eighteen holes, walked in two loops of nine.
The opening nine wraps west of the clubhouse before the back nine threads north and east through mature parkland and the practice ground.

Par 4 · 401 yds
The hole
A straight, settling opener. Bunkers left and right of the fairway punish anything pulled or pushed off the tee.
Playing tip
Position over power — a short-to-mid iron into a flattish green sets the tone.
