The Championship course is a Par-72 layout designed by former US Open Champion Jerry Pate, and later lengthened and refined by the renowned Tom Fazio II. The course features a signature '19th hole' which is a par-3 island green that sits just below the clubhouse terrace.
The practice facilities feature two putting greens, a newly constructed 60,000 square foot driving range tee, a newly constructed chipping area with two green complexes, and a 5 hole par-3 'Short Course' also designed by US Open Champion Jerry Pate, which recently had all tee boxes completely rebuilt.
