Hole #1 Par 4. Tough start!

Sunterra Lodge runs along the right side of the fairway, the creek is on your left and a fairway bunker is to the left 210 yards out.

Hole #2 Par 4. Dog-leg right!

Two large fairway bunkers at the dog-leg on your right, two green-side bunkers and a pond directly behind the green.

Hole #3 Par 4. Lay-up hole!

200 yards to the center of the fairway.

The familiar creek runs along the left side.

The green is over the creek on the left side.

Hole #4 Par 4. Straight-away! Almost.

Looks intimidating from the tee but even a fair tee shot will put you in position to be on in two.

The ponds on the left and slightly in front of the tee shot have a bark much worse than their bite.

Out of bounds on right and two green-side bunkers make this par 4 challenging but fun.

Hole #5 Par 3. The large pond to the left/front of tee and the familiar creek on your right, requires a good straight tee shot to the green.

Green is 30-yards deep creating a fairly large target.

Hole #6 Par 5. The first of four par 5s, with out of bounds right and a tall tree line to the left.

Your 2nd shot can run into lots of trouble on left.

Two green-side bunkers create caution in trying to get home in two.

Hole #7 Par 3. A fun little par 3 with new friend, the Creek, on the left and in front of green!

If you must miss, miss it to the right.

Hole #8 Par 4. Two ponds, both in play, keep everyone but the really long hitters from trying to reach this short par 4.

2nd pond is 190 yards out but take a lot of carry to get over on the drive.

One green-side bunker and a sloping green makes for an interesting hole.

Hole #9 Par 5. The creek runs along the left then crosses fairway 240 yards out!

2nd shot, that creek has worked its way back in play and is 170 yards from bridge to the green.

Try to keep your approach shot below the hole on this sloping green.

Hole #10 Par 5

Birdie or double bogie!

Blind drive up a hill to a sloping fairway to the right.

Possible to reach green in 2 with a straight drive, but be careful to the right.

Hole #11 Par 4.Good Luck!

90 (degree) dog-leg left.

Your tee shot is 190 yards to center of a marked landing area, totally surrounded by your new best friend, the creek.

Negotiate this triple crossing and you'll breathe a sigh of relief as you putt for your par.

Hole #12 Par 4.

Slight dog-leg to the right & over the hill.

Out of bounds to the right!

There is a fairway bunker 190 yards out on right so keep your drive in the center or left center.

The 2nd shot should be a short chip but it's to a small sloping green.

Hole #13 Par 4.

Another "must lay-up" hole!

Send your tee shot up hill 150 yards to center the of a landing area.

You'll be able to see the green, a 120 foot drop, just a wedge or 9 iron away (from the directional flag).

Watch the trees!

The do tend to reach out and grab your ball in mid flight.

Hole #14 Par 3.

No more than a wedge away!

Hole is 113-yards out, 100 feet down hill and only plays 80-yards long.

It's a tricky little drive and a tricky little (hopefully short) putt.

Hole #15 Par 4.

Out of bounds on the right!

The tee shot is up hill with 180 yards to the bunker on the right.

Not a lot of trouble, your new friend the creek has disappeared but the green can be a little uncooperative.

Hole #16 Par 4.

Avoid the hidden rocks on the right 230 yards out!

Aim for the left center of the down hill fairway.

The green is large and usually rather friendly.

Hole #17 Par 3.

Don't be short!

Don't be left and by all means, don't be right.

Difficult to get the ball up and down if you miss short.

Even more difficult from in the woods.

Hole #18 Par 5.

Oh Yes, the creek is back and it crosses the fairway 230 yards out!

Watch the out of bounds right! 2nd shot, the creek travels up toward the bunker guarded green on the left.
