Driving Directions

Public, 36 holes, $16.00 - $24.00

This facility opened a second eighteen hole course in the summer of 1997. The North Course is more of links-style design with grass mounds placed along the fairways. The layout doesn't include the Scottish-style rough outlining the holes, but there are twenty-eight different types of grasses and wildflowers planted throughout the design. The signature hole on the new layout is #16, a 168-yard, par 3, which requires a carry of all but twelve yards over water. The Championship Course is another challenging layout that has water hazards coming into play on a few holes. The fairways are average width, and the greens are fast. Bon Vivant hosted a U.S. Open qualifier in 1996. There are discounts on cart rentals during the weekdays.
