Hole #1
Par 4 - 426 yards
Pro Tip: Hole 1 is the longest par 4. A good tee shot that avoids the bunker and trees on the right side of the hole is ideal for your approach shot. Beware of the large bunker that guards the green from the left side. Large green but its defense is its tricky slopes.
Hole #2
Par 5 - 493 yards
Pro Tip: With a dog leg that bends slightly right you have a couple of options. If you want to get to the green in 2 you must take a big swing with a shot that goes over the trees on the right or play a nicely shaped shot that curves from left to right. Beware going for the green in two. The approach shot from around 200 yards is narrow with water hazard on the left side of the green, bunkers on both sides and a large tree that blocks the right side of the green. Ideal birdie play is to lay up to the 100-yard mark on the left side of the fairway.
Hole #3
Par 4 - 412 yards
Pro Tip: This par 4 has a large bunker on the right side. Stay left on this hole as you have more forgiveness for an open approach shot. Be sure to play your approach shot with wind in mind, as this hole is more open, and wind tends to effect ball flight more on this hole.
Hole #4
Par 4 - 361 yards
Pro Tip: This par 4 has two water hazards down the right side. Ideal play is to lay up to the 150-yard mark. Avoid being blocked out by the trees and hazards on the left. Double bunkers guard the hole from the left side of green as well.
Hole #5
Par 3 - 158 yards
Pro Tip: Be mindful of wind on this hole. If playing into the wind, club up and swing easy.

Green is large and forgiving but is guarded by water right and bunker left.
Hole #6
Par 5 - 488 yards
Pro Tip: This hole has a slight dog leg to the right. Your tee shot must be accurate. Trees line a portion of the left fairway. Be cautious of the water hazard on the right as well. On your approach shot you have water hazard left and a bunker on the right side of the green. Green is large and forgiving this is definite scoring opportunity if you play the hole smart.
Hole #7
Par 3 - 151 yards
Pro Tip: Be cautious of wind on this hole. Heavy winds are common here and will effect ball flight. Green is forgiving as it bowls to the middle. Avoid bunkers on both sides of the green. Making a wedge recovery from the side of the green will require a high shot with lots of spin to hold the green and save par.
Hole #8
Par 4 - 335 yards
Pro Tip: A straight away par 4 with trees that line the right side. The left side is more forgiving as it opens up after the trees that are on the left. Green is large and flat. Take advantage of a great scoring hole.
Hole #9
Par 4 - 381 yards

Hole #11
Par 4 - 289 yards

Hole #12
Par 4 - 267 yards
Pro Tip: Driveable par 4. 3 wood off the tee to the green reaps large risk reward for a possible eagle. A straight tee shot of 170 yards will set you up for a well-placed approach shot. Double bunkers on the left, trees on both sides and a bunker that guards the right front side of the green.
Hole #13
Par 4 - 414 yards
Pro Tip: A good drive down the middle of the fairway is key to making par or better. Bunker comes into play on right side rough. Trees line both sides of the hole with hazard on the left.
Hole #14
Par 5 - 486 yards

Hole #17
Par 4 - 257 yards
Pro Tip: Drivable par 4 with a large tree blocking the green. a preferred shot would be to shape your shot around the tree to the green. Or if you have a high ball flight, fly one over the tree. A 200-yard shot from the tee sets you up nicely for birdie as well.
Hole #18
Par 4 - 352 yards
Pro Tip: Big reward for hitting a nicely shaped shot around the trees that stays right of the pond on the left. Play a shot that curves from right to left and find fairway for optimal approach to the green.
