Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Number one is a downhill dog leg left to a green protected on both sides by substantial trees as well as greenside bunkers. From the tee, a shot favoring the left side will be richly rewarded.
From The Fairway
On The Green Number one is a downhill dog leg left to a green protected on both sides by substantial trees as well as greenside bunkers. From the tee, a shot favoring the left side will be richly rewarded.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee The par 5 second usually plays into the prevailing wind.
From The Fairway The tee shot faces trees on the right and left, and a fairway bunker on the left is lurking to make anything but straight costly on the lay up shot.
On The Green Greenside bunkers protect the large green, and the speed of a putt from the left of the green to a pin located on the right (toward the river) can be very surprising to the unsuspecting player.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Three is straight away, and prO-Bably the easiest on the course.
From The Fairway It is well trapped in front, but a good iron shot will take them out of play. Again, be aware of the speed of the putts that go toward the river.
On The Green
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee The short downhill par three is to a long narrow green.
From The Fairway
On The Green The pin placement on this green makes a great deal of difference how it will play. The back nine tee placement makes this a very different hole, because of the angle of approach and it can be very treacherous.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Now the fun begins. Number five plays
From The Fairway
On The Green long to an elevated green, which slopes from left to right and back to front. You do not want to be above this pin.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Six plays long because the landing area is uphill and eats up all but the most solid drive.
From The Fairway
On The Green There is also a slight rise in front of the green, so you'd better take an extra club to make sure you get there.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Seven is a par three that is guarded by bunkers, both right and left.
From The Fairway
On The Green Members are sure these bunkers have ball magnets under the sand, as they tend to swallow up many shots to this innocent looking green.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Number eight is the most beautiful hole, especially in the late afternoon with the sun setting behind the elevated green.
From The Fairway The entire hole is before you on the tee. Trees on the left, and a small creek on the right frame the fairway.
On The Green For the shot to the green, you can use the redwood tree as a target, but it is easy to leave it short. Not a bad option to a front pin. This is the only hole on the course that goes from east to west, and is usually played into a crosswind.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee The home hole is a par 5 that requires some golf management
From The Fairway
On The Green A good tee shot favors the right side. A second shot should be kept well to the left, as the green is guarded with a tree on the right that cuts off most of the right side on approach. Be sure to hit enough club to the elevated green.
