The par
71 Heathland Course, designed by Tom Doak, is a
return to the grand, "Old Country" traditions
of the game. It has been distinctly molded in the
image of the British Isles links courses, with holes
reminiscent of familiar links like St. Andrews, and
lesser known gems like Lahinch and Cruden Bay. Most
of the holes are without high vegetation, providing
a visual presentation like no other course in the
area. The challenge and difficulty of this course
comes primarily from the unobstructed breeze that
wafts constantly over the course, and the strategically
placed bunkers and lush, deep rough that closely border
et fairways. Many of the greenside bunkers are deep
and require creative shotmaking to escape. Rated one
of the "Top 10 New Resort Courses in the World" by
GOLF Magazine in 1990, Heathland's design allows players
of all ability levels to "step back in time."
