Lyman Orchards Golf Club (Jones course)

3-PLUS: Good course - several memorable features; worthy of 3½ stars.

Est. 1969

Lyman Orchards Golf Club is home to two championship layouts, the Player and Jones courses. Contrary to some opinion, we would give the edge to the Player course in terms of golfing interest and challenge. However, the Robert Trent Jones Sr course is also a generally well-regarded golf course, which combines a good layout with several attractive holes and features.

This tree-lined and open parkland layout will test most facets of your game, and should provide a round with plenty of enjoyable golfing challenges. Worth visiting if you are in the area.
