The original owner, along with the architect, endeavored to create a course that is as beautiful as it is challenging. Cateechee was carved from 420 acres of virgin forests and open meadowland. By contrast, most courses are developed on less than 250 acres of land. No need to worry about balls from adjacent holes finding their way onto your fairway. The site features dramatic elevation changes, from high ridges that afford panoramic views, to low-lying wetlands along Cedar Creek, which meanders through the property, coming into play on five holes. The elevated tees, natural vegetation and wildlife, thick and generously sculpted fairways, and pristine bent grass green, not only make Cateechee one of the finest golf courses in the region, but also creates unique and challenging playing conditions. To score well at Cateechee, you’ll need to be a little daring – just like Cateechee herself.

 

Early on in development, the decision was made to place the course in a residence-free setting on enough land to hold three courses. The result is a collection of risk/reward challenges you’ll want to play again and again. These spectacular and ever-changing qualities of the course present a wonderful experience to even the most accomplished golfer. As it was when it opened in 1997, Cateechee remains a pure golf experience.

 

A natural game mixed with the beautiful and simple pleasures of nature – the way golf was meant to be played.
