Lake View CourseDesigned by golf achitects J. B. McGovern and Dick Wilson, Lake View premiered in 1952. Cason Callaway Believed golf should be a pleasant experience in beautiful surroundings and his vision was the inspiration for this course. True to its name, there are nine holes with water in play or adjacent. This par-70 course was renovated in 2002 but retains its signature look and feel. | Mountain CourseDesigned by Dick Wilson, architect of Chicago's renowned Cog Hill No. 4, this is a challenging test with tight fairways lined by towering pines. The scenic signature par-5 hole number 15 features tee and approach shots over water. This course hosted the PGA's Buick Challenge tournament from 1991 to 2002. Both courses have hosted multiple Q-School qualifiers and numerous NCAA Regional events. |
