Golf

The championship 18-hole golf course and practice areas have become recognized as one of the area’s best golf courses.   

Our driving range has both a grass tee top/hitting area, and a synthetic grass hitting area that can be routinely used when the grass tee areas are closed.  In addition, we have a lesson tee available for private instruction, an expanded putting green, two chipping & pitching greens, several practice bunkers, and a multitude of short game hitting areas to fine tune your greenside skills.

The Sports Shoppe features a variety of latest golf products, an abundance of new accessories, clubs, and merchandise. Additionally, we carry tennis merchandise perfect for every tennis enthusiast.
