The Course

The course was originally designed by Australian PGA great Alan Murray who won over 70 tournaments including the French Open, the Australian PGA and the Wills Masters. More recently it has been reviewed by local resident and PGA veteran Lyndsay Stephen and Phil Scott of Scott Golf Designs.
The course is sown with Hybrid Wintergreen on the fairways and 1019 Providence Bent on the greens. Our Course Superintendent, Oliver Bell, joined us from Terrey Hills Golf and Country Club in Sydney. Oliver brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience as he and his team tend the course, keeping it to the highest of standards all year round.
