Designed by Greg Martin, the 6,736-yard course is par-3 strong. Six varied par-3s are mixed with 5 par-5s and 7, rather than the standard 12, par-4s to yield a par-71. Bent grass fairways, tees and greens give the tract a country club feel, as does its thick rough and true-rolling putting surfaces.
Here at The Oaks, you’ll find unique bunkering, wide landing areas in fairways and quality, uniquely-sloped greens, all set naturally into the surrounding landscape. And as the name implies, you find over 250 mature oak trees dominating the property.
“It was owner John Blaska’s intention to develop a golf course that was appropriate treatment for the landscape as well as an engaging golf experience. I believe we accomplished that.”
