Mayapple Golf Club is best known for its unique links style design. Although the track appears open, grassy knolls meander throughout the course making a well placed tee shot a must. Tall windswept fescue outlines many of the fairways, flowing to elevated greens which can make birdie putts hard to come by even for experienced golfers. Mayapple maintains premium practice grounds boasting a 5000 square foot grass tee, full driving range, and teaching facility.
