The Ritz-Carlton Members Golf Club--Opening December 2005. Located on 315 acres of lush, tropical landscape, this imminently playable course is being magnificently sculpted to reflect the natural beauty of its environment - with abundant elevation changes and picturesque lakes throughout. Beautiful wetlands, colorful flowering shrubs, informal native grass areas, marshes with aquatic plants, and mature Oak trees enhance the natural setting, which can be easily enjoyed on foot.
Enhanced by The Ritz-Carlton Caddie Concierge Program, "This will be a terrific walking course," says Fazio, "with very reasonable connections between the greens and tees." With six sets of tees, from championship lengths of 7,549 yards to forward tees of 5,237 yards, golfers of all skill levels can play the course at a length that will challenge them. Says Fazio, "The strong low handicap player will want to attack the direct lines of play. But for the higher handicapper, we're creating options and varieties around strong hazards."
