Where we Play

Pebble Beach
Voted “Top 10” courses to play in America and worldwide by Golf Digest. On most golfers’ bucket list Pebble Beach is located on the Pacific Coast of California. This course has held many PGA Professional tournaments including the 2000 US Open. Designed by Jack Neville and Douglas Grant, the course hugs the rugged coastline, providing wide-open vistas, cliffside fairways and sloping greens. It is a delightful challenge for all players. Such beauty and spectacular views will capture your imagination and thrill you with its creativity.

Spyglass Hill
Spyglass Hill Golf Course is named after the classic novel “Treasure Island” by Robert Louis Stevenson. This is the area where Stevenson would gather ideas for his books. Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed the Course. A unique course usually saving the vistas for the final holes, Spyglass first five holes run along the Pacific Seas sandy dunes and the last 13 cut through a forest, Spyglass Hill Golf Course is considered one of the most difficult in the world from the back tees.

Pinehurst Course No. 2
World Renowned as one of the best championship golf courses, No 2 proves the genius of Donald Ross on every hole. Host to 1999, 2005 and 2014 US Open, the course is astonishing yet invigorating for golfers of any age, skill or experience.

Pinehurst Course No. 4
Located a mile away from the Main Clubhouse, No. 7, newly renovated in 2003, is one of the boldest and most dramatic golf courses at Pinehurst. Located on some of the most rugged land around the Village of Pinehurst, the course lends a mountainous feel to a course that literally backs up to the more movement of the world-famous No. 2. The Rees Jones-designed masterpiece uses landforms in equal parts to assist and challenge the golfer – down off many tees into the fairway, back up on a number of holes into the greens.

Pinehurst Course No. 6
Step back in time to a classic layout that’s stood the test of time. Even though Dr. Leroy Culver built the first rudimentary nine holes and John Dunn Tucker added the next nine, it is clearly Donald Ross’ touch that can be seen on this first golf course. Don’t let the short 6,093-yard par 70 fool you – it’s more of a course than it first appears. Wild drives or a sloppy short game can make for a long day. As with any course bearing Ross’ name, it is ultimately very playable without losing its challenge – and a favourite for a great starting round.

The Reserve Club
The essence of The Reserve Club is the superb Nicklaus Design golf course. Named by Golf Digest as “one of the Top Ten Best New Private Courses in America in 2003 and the 16th Best Golf Course in South Carolina for 2009-2010”. The course itself is a beautiful layout with a dozen species of hardwoods and evergreens. The golfer is drawn along in a relaxed pace of play, skirting lakes and deep south forests until the dramatic closing holes affirm that you are in the hands of a master architect. Lunch and dinner included.

The River Golf Club
The River Golf Club is a premier golf course in Augusta that combines a fantastic layout with a spectacular setting to create a golfers’ paradise. Designed by internationally acclaimed golf course architect Jim Fazio, The River Golf Club offers a unique setting which includes large Mini-Verde Bermuda grass greens, numerous lakes, wetlands and dramatic bunkers.

Our golf course in Augusta was elected as one of the top five new courses nationally in 1999 by Golf Digest. It also has hosted US Open qualifying in 2002 and was the host site of the mini tour championship in 1999 and 2000.

“If there’s a golf course in heaven, I hope it’s like Augusta National. I just don’t want an early tee time”
Gary Player
