Oakhurst Traditions Golf Community
« on: October 23, 2007, 08:56:27 PM »
I just visited the website of one of my favorite golf courses, Oakhurst Links.  On their web page, there was information about a new housing development and golf course (among other amenities) to be built and called Oakhurst Traditions.

Jack Nicklaus is the architect with construction supposedly to begin in 2006.  The original Links course will be retained with the development above and to the top of the mountain behind the existing course.

Does anyone have more information about this project and it's status?

Also I assume that the Nicklaus connection is just for PR.

Charlie,

Thanks for looking into this.  Nicklaus has the project listed on their website, but all information is "TBA."

The Oakhurst website states that Nicklaus has been a friend of the family for 30 years.

Charlie,

Thanks for looking into the project.  I met the Kellers many years ago.  Very nice people.  Oakhurst is a special place and I hope whatever plans the Kellers make or projects they pursue are a success.  Thanks Charlie!
