The Treasure Cay Golf Course
was designed by Dick Wilson, one of
America's most renowned golf course architects, with several classic courses
consistently ranked in "Golf Digest's Top 100". The best known might be the
Doral "Blue Monster" in Miami. Treasure Cay was among the last courses
that Wilson designed but unfortunately he died before the course was finished in 1968. His
assistant, Joe Lee, completed the work and went on himself to become a famous golf course
architect.
The course is carved out of the woods on a generous tract of land so there
is no interference from adjacent fairways. Measuring 6985 yards from the blue tees and
with 60 strategically placed sand bunkers, it challenges even the best players. Natural
terrain and undulations along with imaginative contouring provide subtleties which will
make you want to play it more than once.

An excellent irrigation system is in place drawing water from two fresh
water ponds on the property. The capable and friendly staff under Superintendent Steve
Pedican do a great job of keeping the course in top condition year round.
If you are a single looking for a game, just show up at 8.30 am. and Pro
Ronnie Bootle will fix you up. Tee times are not needed. In fact if you tee off after
10.30 AM, you may not see another group - you may be playing your own private championship
course! During the winter season, tournaments are often held at biweekly intervals and
guests are made most welcome, a reasonable and interesting way of meeting new
people.
