Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee The tee shot over Saucon Creek must avoid a large flash-face bunker on the left side.

From The Fairway

On The Green The second shot must be long enough to clear the stand of trees on the right side of the fairway thus allowing for an open approach shot to the green.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee A well-positioned drive will leave a mid-iron approach to a deceptively narrow green.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee Avoiding the large pond that virtually surrounds the green on the front and right side is the number one priority on this long, difficult par 3. An errant shot to the left will find Saucon Creek, which runs down the left side of the hole.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway The tee shot on this par 5 must favor the right side of the fairway to avoid the pond on the left.

On The Green A well-positioned second shot will avoid a series of cross-bunkers that guard the approach to the green, which narrows from front to back.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee It requires a short- to mid-iron approach shot that must clear a well-placed pot bunker in front. There is a bunker on the left side of the green, as well as a “shell bunker” short of the green. The putting surface slopes dramatically from back to front.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway The drive on this hole may be played with any club from a long-iron to a driver. Accuracy is paramount if you are to avoid the fairway bunkers on the right and the rough and trees on the left.

On The Green

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway A challenging hole that starts with a tee shot that gives the player the option of either risk or reward. The safe play is to the right side of the fairway, but the length of the approach shot may be decreased considerably by playing over the edge of a very large bunker.

On The Green

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Long hitters may choose a 3-wood tee shot to avoid the pond in the center of the fairway, which turns gently from left to right.

On The Green The second shot is to an elevated green guarded by a deep bunker on the left. Look to the right as you approach the green, and you will see the small stone “spring house” from which the hole takes its name.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee This slight dogleg left is a great finish to the front nine. It is uphill from start to finish and plays much longer than the yardage indicates. The large green guarded by bunkers left and right allows for a variety of challenging pin locations.

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway That said, today’s longer hitters can go for it in two, but they must place a perfect tee shot on the right side of the fairway, which brings the tree line and creek into play and can turn a manageable par 5 into a quick bogey with the slightest of misses.

On The Green Grace believed that par 5s should not be reachable in two strokes, thus, this double dogleg perfectly incorporates a meandering Saucon Creek forcing accurate shots before attacking the green with a short iron or wedge.

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This classic “Redan” hole requires a mid- to long-iron shot to a green that is guarded on the left side by bunkers and slopes away from the golfer from front to back.

On The Green

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee As evident from the approach shot, the hillside protrudes in front of the green leaving the golfer with only a small glimpse of the left side of the green. This short par 4 requires an accurate tee shot and a precise approach shot to a putting green protected by the Alps design and false front.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway A narrow hole that plays longer than the yardage indicates. The drive may be played with a fairway wood or driver to a very narrow landing area in a tree-lined valley.

On The Green The approach shot is to an elevated green sloped severely from back to front.

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee With the beautiful Villa Pazzetti in the backdrop, this picturesque par 3 marks the return routing toward the clubhouse. Golfers are faced with a long- or mid-iron to a well-protected green with significant undulation - the front and right side of the green are protected by a massive and deep bunker with the left side protected by an equally penalizing bunker.

From The Tee

From The Fairway The well-positioned second shot to the left side of the fairway must clear a large flash-face bunker on the right and a series of cross-bunkers. A short iron approach to the large green is open when played from the left side of the fairway but must clear a large, deep bunker from the right side.

On The Green

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee This relatively long, straightaway hole takes its name from the mounds surrounding the green. It is unique in that there are no greenside bunkers. A back left pin position is the most difficult.

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway The drive on this 90-degree dogleg hole must be positioned far enough to clear the corner, yet remain short of the rough and trees on the far side of the fairway. Two bunkers - left and right - guard the undulating putting surface.

On The Green

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway While this long par 4 plays slightly downhill, it requires two precisely struck and placed golf shots in order to reach the green in regulation. A well-positioned tee shot must navigate an elongated bunker on the left side, a softly turning fairway line on the right side, and a tree-lined fairway on both sides for the golfer’s approach.

On The Green A mid-iron to a well-protected green features two bunkers - one on each side of the green. The putting surface slopes towards the front of the green from middle of the green and then away from the golfer for the back half of the putting surface.
