Designed by George Fazio and opened in the 1970s, it features only two par-5s alongside a series of long par-4s protected by deep bunkers and water hazards. The front nine offers open, tree-lined fairways, while the back nine narrows and demands more strategic shot-making. It suits golfers seeking a challenging, skill-testing layout.
