All the fairways are narrow due to an extremely thick cut of rough, however, there is only a scattering of trees that can affect your shots. Furthermore, the numerous sand bunkers on the course may cause problems for the average player, and water hazards come into play at every corner on all three courses. The terrain is fairly flat, but there is some slight mounding that can occasionally leave you with an uneven lie. The large greens are undulating, and fast. Many scenic views of the countryside can be seen throughout these courses.
