About the course
This club has three fabulous eighteen hole courses. All three were built on rolling hills and have grass and sand bunkers throughout the designs. All of the fairways are tree lined, and the greens are small. The last three holes on the Grace Course are all par 4's measuring 437 yards or more. "GOLF Magazine" ranking it 69th among the "Top 100 Courses in the U.S." for 1995, and 97th for 1997. "GOLFWEEK" rated it 73rd in the category of "America's 100 Best Classical Courses" for 1997, 60th for 1998 and 64th for 1999. The Weyhill Course is the most picturesque course due to the many elevation changes. The Old Course is a very traditional layout with sloping greens. The Old Course hosted the Senior U.S. Open Tournament in 1992 and in 2000. "GOLF Magazine" named it 90th among the "100 Greatest Courses in the U.S." for 1995, and "GOLFWEEK" rated it 60th in the category of "America's 100 Best Classical Courses" for 1997, 55th for 1998 and 63rd for 1999. Perry Maxwell redesigned 3 holes on the Old Course in 1944.
