COURSE DESIGN

Jack Nicklaus (2006 redesign)

The named architect is the clearest starting point for understanding the course, but renovation history and current setup also shape how it plays. Ratings and slopes vary by course and tee; this guide avoids presenting one number as universal.

Think around

You’ll probably like this if…

Players who want private-club visual polish without membership and golfers who value a strong walking-and-practice culture.

Think twice if…

Peak-season access and pricing matter, and exposed conditions can make the course play more demanding than its yardage suggests.
