Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The first hole features a tee shot that entertains a blind landing area and welcomes you with a birdie chance.
From The Fairway With a driver on the fairway you will have an iron shot to the green.
On The Green The green is undulating and protected with a bunker on the left and right. Par is a good score considering the length of this starting hole.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway The second hole features an uphill tee shot that entertains a narrowing landing area. If you can hit the fairway then it sets you up for an uphill approach shot to a green.
On The Green It is recommended you land before the green and allow a bounce into the flag. The green has no bunkers protecting it so accuracy and shot length control are important for the approach shot.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Considered the most difficult par 4 on the front nine, this dog leg right features a tee shot to a blind landing area.
From The Fairway A power fade for a righty or a draw for a lefty is ideal. Along the right side of this hole is a water hazard and if you find your ball it will require a chip out to the middle of fairway with a short iron into this beautiful bowl shaped green.
On The Green Even a good miss can result in getting a good bounce and end up near the hole and/or onto the putting surface. Par is a good score.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee On the first of two par 3´s, with a predominant cross wind from right to left, club selection is very important as the wind can make a difference of up to three clubs.
From The Fairway The green slants from left to right with various undulations. It is protected by water in the front and the two bunkers in the back will help save a shot that is hit too far.
On The Green Ideally the shot is a fade for a righty and draw for a lefty. Depending on hole location it is the most difficult to putt. Players are happy with a two putt.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee This relatively short par 4 has a narrow landing area with most tee shots collecting into the right rough.
From The Fairway The safe play is a long iron or hybrid off the tee to set you up for a short iron into the well protected, elevated false front green.
On The Green It is protected by two bunkers (front left and right) and two bunkers (back left and right). There is little depth so accuracy and control is demanded. Again, a par is a good score on this hole.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Off the tee you must watch for the fairway bunkers on the left and right, but it does allow for a generous fairway width.
From The Fairway Even with a poor tee shot it can still provide you with a chance for a birdie.
On The Green Your uphill second shot has to be accurate to avoid the fairway bunkers located approximately 40 yards short left and right of the hole. The green slopes back to front and has little depth.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee This hole has a dog leg to the right and the wind is usually in your face. From the back tees the landing area looks bleak, but the fairway opens up on the left side.
From The Fairway Long hitters have a chance to reach the green in a couple shots. On the second shot it's best to lay up and avoid the two bunkers short left and right of the green.
On The Green There are two bunkers located behind the green to collect any shots that end up long. The green is undulating and even the best putters have a difficult time reading the line of each putt.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee The second par 3, although short, is an equalizer.
From The Fairway
On The Green For better players it's a choice between scoring wedges but don't get overconfident as the green plays havoc with many great tee shots. It is protected by two large bunkers at the front and two behind that gather shots hit over the green.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee The finishing hole is a par 4 that features either an elevated tee shot from the front nine or what we term as “THE CHUTE” for the back nine.
From The Fairway Both require an accurate tee shot to set you up for a mid-short iron into an elevated green.
On The Green The green is surrounded by two large bunkers. The finishing green overlooks our beautiful Lake Superior. Bring your camera as it's the money shot and will keep you wishing there was more.
