02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

A bold, links-style Mike Strantz design on the Hammock Coast, famous for enormous sandy waste areas, wide fairways, and big, angular greens that demand creativity.

Best forBucket-listShot-makingSceneryVariety

Consistently praised

  • Golfers love the dramatic Strantz routing, with sprawling waste areas on every hole and large, sloping greens that reward imagination.
  • Wide fairways and big elevation changes give it a grand, memorable feel that players rate among the area's best.

Worth knowing

  • The huge greens and waste areas punish poor distance control and intimidate first-timers, so it plays harder than the wide fairways suggest.

Golfers recommend

  • Pick the right tees and err shorter; golfers consistently say you will have more fun and keep your dignity.
  • Warm up your bunker and partial-wedge game, since you will face shots from packed waste sand into deep greens.
