This private golf and country club is located in an 800-acre development, of which 180 acres encompass the eighteen hole course. The layout features an elevation differential of seventy feet from top to bottom. There is a significant amount of wetlands in the design, with water coming into play on eleven holes. This is a typical Arthur Hills design with grass faced bunkers and small to average greens. There is only a handful of fairways that feature trees. Soft mounding is found throughout the course. The signature hole is #7, a 412-yard, par 4, with a stand-alone tree in the dogleg fairway. A large bunker in the middle of the fairway presents golfers with a number of options to the green. The small green is guarded by a deception bunker and a sand bunker. Due to the private nature of this club, the fees were not disclosed.

Private Passion, Feb 04, 2004

reviewer: Chris Walters from Lansing, MI

This is a terrific course that offers golfers of all abilities a challenge. Beautiful views, great greens and terrific golf. Many of the par 4's will challenge a good ball striker to go for the green...be careful, it's not as passive as it looks. The 5's are all long and offer plenty of scoring opportunities. Wide fairways but small greens make the approach shots important. The greens are smallish and require respectable shot making...practice your short game before playing..Be sharp! The new clubhouse, open summer 2004, will be a terrific improvement. It's going to be massive and it will certanly be beautiful.

Laguna Lake Golf Course
"Not Fancy, But Fun!"
A tricky little course, designed by someone that knew their business. Shots over trees in the middle of the fairway, elevated, tricky (and fast) greens add to the enjoyment of this 9-hole course. Definitely recommended for golfers that like a bit of a challenge on shorter holes. The greens and fairways are in excellent shape, and the overall course is very well maintained. For the price, this course is an unbeatable value.

Bartow Golf Course
"Golfing For Par"
This Course is set out to have you playing for par rather than birdie. Tricky bunkers, well placed trees, and water make the Bartow Golf Course frustrating at times. Minor elevation changes enhance play as do friendly people. Give it a try.
---Lakeland Golfer, Lakeland, FL, USA
San Gabriel Country Club
"Beautiful and challenging old-style course"
This a beautiful, scenic golf course which will challenge every golfer, regardless of handicap. The maturity of this course, which includes huge oak trees and large shade trees, gives the impression of walking in a park, with the added enjoyment of playing golf. Even though the length of the course is short by modern standards, that is where the challenge lies. Drives must be accurate, and pitch shots precise. The greens are deceptive and fast, and are well-bunkered. The clubhouse is very well-planned, with great views of the course from the men's lounge and dining room areas. The men's locker room has been remodeled, and I guarantee that Luis, the locker room chief, will never forget your name. He is a wonder. One golfing visit to this club will make you wish you could live in the area so that you could apply for membership -- it is a memorable golfing experience.

La Paloma Country Club - Canyon/Hill Course
"Tough Nicklaus course in beautiful resort setting"
La Paloma golf course (any of the comibinations) is as tough a test of golf as you will ever have. If your game is not on, it will be a long, long day. Course condition is great and is set in one of the nicest resorts you will ever see. Amenities are first cabin all the way (enjoy a great lunch on the patio following your round). Staff is cordial and helpful. Forecaddies required of all groups help keep play moving and they truly earn their money. One of the nicest golfing experiences I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy -- if you can -- I urge you to play La Paloma.
