The gently rolling terrain of the Carolinas Piedmont shapes a classic parkland style layout, rewarding strategic play and precise iron work, favoring those who can manage the course's subtle doglegs and well-guarded greens.
Originally conceived by Arthur Findlay, the course has seen subtle refinements over the years, never straying far from its traditional roots.
