Hearthstone Golf & Country Club
The golf : The original 18 opened in 1977 after Jay
Riviere brought in over 2,000 trees to line the fairways, and a third
nine was added in 1986 by Joe Finger. Each nine features some impressive,
difficult par 3 holes and plenty of bunkers throughout the design.
The Wolf Corner Course is the shortest of the three nines, and
is more wide open. Its famous par 3 is No. 6, which plays only 106 yards
but features a green surrounded by water on three sides.
The Jackrabbit Course is the most difficult, featuring tight fairways,
frequent out-of-bounds, and numerous water hazards. Nos. 4 and 8 are both
over 200 yards and feature water.
The Horsepen Course is flat and wide open, spotted by a few ravines
located by the greens. No. 3 goes 232 yards, and No. 5 is 198 yards with
a lake to the right of the green.
