Belgrade Lakes Golf Club

From the moment Harold Alfond first decided that he wanted to build a golf course in this pristine, yet rugged locale, he knew right away what he wanted this very special place to become. In his vision, Belgrade Lakes would be a relaxed, unpretentious, surprisingly stimulating experience. Or, what he referred to as “a country club for the average guy”. In British architect Clive Clark, Alfond had found a kindred spirit.

The result is a course design that naturally fits the landscape, moving as little as possible as what was already there. A majestic mountaintop course, it is laid out on a 240-acre swath of land and features rolling fairways lined with brilliantly colored stands of timber, alongside white granite outcroppings. Along the way, you’ll find impossibly beautiful par threes, consistently diverse par fours, short but remarkably devilish par fives, and old-style cross bunkering throughout.
