The Palmer designed course has tight fairways, blanketed with Tifton grass and guarded by deep ravines and steep hills to give golfers an experience of playing a par-72 championship course. The green with fine Tifdwarf grass and also guarded with big bunkers (which are also in the fairways) are overlaid on a graduated bed of the finest beach sand with state-of-the-art drainage and irrigation systems which insure its being an all-weather course.
