Ouimet/Zaharias at Crosswinds Golf Club

Crosswinds Golf Club in Plymouth, Massachusetts features two eighteen-hole courses designed by the team of Dr. Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry. The Ouimet and Zaharias courses, named after legendary American golfers Francis Ouimet and Babe Didrikson Zaharias, opened in the late 1990s as part of a larger public golf facility. The property sits in the coastal plain region of southeastern Massachusetts, where the design works with relatively modest elevation changes and native vegetation characteristic of the area.

Hurdzan and Fry, known for their environmental sensitivity and strategic design approach, routed both courses through a landscape of scrub oak, pine, and sandy soils typical of Cape Cod's geological influence. The courses incorporate natural waste areas and native grasses, creating a links-influenced aesthetic while maintaining playability for a range of skill levels. Both layouts emphasize strategic options from the tee and approach play that rewards course management over pure distance.

The facility operates as a daily-fee complex, serving both local golfers and visitors to the Plymouth area. The dual-course setup allows for variety and accommodates high traffic volumes during the New England golf season. The courses reflect the Hurdzan-Fry philosophy of creating engaging golf that respects the natural environment while providing accessible public golf in a region with strong historical ties to the game's development in America.
