The Arboretum Golf Course

 

This seasoned 18-hole Dick Nugent-designed course has been home to many corporate and charity outings since opening in 1990. The chief features here are 100 acres of rolling fairways, large varieties of trees and wildflowers, and undulating greens.  Hole by hole, the Arboretum presents the golfer with a series of different shot options, each with a varying amount of risk and reward.  Typically, the safest option will lead to a tough following shot and the riskiest option, when executed, will reward a player with the easiest upcoming shot.  Nugent has used angles, hazards and bunkers to dictate the strategy and create the risk and reward aspect of a certain shot or hole.
