A twilight nine designed for families, beginners and anyone who wants a round finished before dinner. Floodlit until 10pm in summer.
The signature hole is the 6th — Prevailing wind off the water turns this into a two-shot hole.

Scorecard
| Hole | Par | Yards | Index | Playing notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 4 | 1472 | 1 | The toughest green complex on the property, three distinct tiers. |
| 2 | 3 | 625 | 8 | Water down the entire left-hand side. |
| 3 | 5 | 2021 | 6 | Uphill approach plays a full club longer. |
| 4 | 4 | 1503 | 4 | Classic short par three, no more than a wedge on a still morning. |
| 5 | 4 | 1500 | 2 | Blind tee shot over the ridge; take one more club than you think. |
| 6 | 3 | 613 | 9 | Prevailing wind off the water turns this into a two-shot hole. |
| 7 | 4 | 1494 | 7 | Bunkering pinches at 280 yards — driver is optional. |
| 8 | 5 | 2006 | 5 | Green falls away at the back right; land it short and let it feed. |
| 9 | 4 | 1488 | 3 | Risk-and-reward drivable par four for the brave. |
| Total | 36 | 12,722 | Out 36 | |
