The course was built around around four lakes that come into play on seven holes. The course is known for its large undulated greens and beautiful landscaping. A scenic covered bridge on the 8th hole is visible from several areas on the course. There are approximately sixty large sand bunkers on the course. The fairways are tree lined and bordered by a generous cut of rough. The course's signature hole is #18, a 407 - yard, par 4, requiring an accurate tee shot between two fairway bunkers, then an approach shot over a lake, highlighted by a scenic fountain, to the green.
