    Did you know:  

    It takes a minimum of 10 - 12 weeks of ideal growing conditions for sprigged grass to mature to a level that can withstand foot traffic from golfers. This means the course will not be ready for play until 10 - 12 weeks after the last significant area of grass is sprigged.

    Member Course Tours: 

    Dates & Time:

    There are currently no scheduled tours due to cartpath installation taking place on a majority of the golf course.
