The Central nine at Hideaway Lake GC is the longest and opens with a 561-yard monster. You’ll need three solid shots to reach the green here, as the tee shot doglegs long and left, followed by two approaches up a steep hill. A huge oak tree blocks the green from about 40 yards out. This is an enjoyable nine with many challenging dogleg holes, as well as the typical elevated greens.
The West nine, featuring three difficult par 3s, is the shortest and most unique of the three courses. The par 3s are all fairly long, and as is the case with every approach shot on this course, your irons must be dialed in if you want to avoid the dreaded carom off the side slope. Ups and downs are extremely tough if you miss on the wrong side. Pay particular attention to the slope of the greens and know where the wise bail-out areas are. The most difficult hole on this side is No. 5, a long-uphill double dogleg with a second shot over water and a very tricky green.

There is an excellent mix of water and bunker hazards on all three 9 hole courses. Approximately 10 years ago Central and West greens were planted with Tiff Eagle grasses.
The putting practice green is perfectly configured to match ''any'' putt you'll find on any golf course. The driving range is excellent with the only fault being it faces East and the rising sun in the mornings causes most to wait to practice until 10 or 11am.
