The best 3 or more regulation course golf complexes?

[Jeff Schley]

UPDATED thru post #54, don't edit please to add to your post, or I'll miss it, make a new post. Also please help out and list the location and courses.

Can be public or private.
Many privates have 2 courses and maybe a short course, but the 3 regulation 18 hole courses or more are not common. You can include just a handful of public/resorts/private clubs. Don't have to share the same clubhouse, etc. Only add what you think have some great courses in them.

[Jeff Schley]

It says on the Fancourt website there are only 2 courses there? Montagu and Outeniqua

[Tim Leahy]

Tree Tops in Mich, 81 holes.
Myrtle Beach if you consider the multiple course hotel packages with the courses so close together.

[Bob Harris]

Saucon Valley - Old, Grace, Weyhill

[Keith Phillips]

Fiddler's Elbow - New Jersey private

[Tom_Doak]

It says on the Fancourt website there are only 2 courses there? Montagu and Outeniqua

The third course is the Links, which is the flagship course that hosted the Presidents Cup.


I wonder if it's closed for remodeling?  Or if access is restricted somehow?

[Tom_Doak]

Uhhhh...Pinehurst anyone?

He did have Pinehurst

[Tom_Doak]

The National in Australia. Gunnamatta, Moonah, and Old

You would think I would think of the ones where I've worked!


I also missed The Legends in Myrtle Beach. 


And, Rosapenna will have a third full course once St. Patrick's opens this spring.  Does that make it the only facility in Ireland with three courses?  I am coming up blank on another.


Also, Forest Dunes, if you count The Loop as two courses

It appears that The Links is private and the other 2 are public. I'm not sure if when you arrange your stay at the resort if they can arrange a round there?

Interesting, I had not heard that.  I've not been there, but everyone I know who has, has played The Links, so it must not be that tough to arrange.

Also, on the private side:  Firestone

A friend Tom emailed me the following:

[Paul Rudovsky]

I played Links at Fancourt about 4-5 years ago...was with a large group but it seemed like it was open to all hotel guests on a limited basis (sort of like #2 at Pinehurst).

The three course facility next to Royal J-burg rthat Tom Doak refers to is Huddle Park.  Their website cites two courses but Wikipedia says the following:


Huddle Park[/size] is one of [/color][/size]Johannesburg[/color][/size]´s biggest parks. It is situated on a [/color][/size]wetland[/color][/size] and is adjacent to the [/color][/size]suburbs[/color][/size] of [/color][/size]Linksfield[/color][/size] and [/color][/size]Orange Grove[/color][/size]. It comprises approx. 200 [/color][/size]hectares[/color][/size] of [/color][/size]grassland[/color][/size] and [/color][/size]woodland[/color][/size], with three tree-lined dams providing fishing and bird-watching opportunities. Three golf courses take up most of the space on the park, and, although the blue course is a former SA open course and is still playable, the white and the yellow courses has been left untended for years and have gone to seed. It is one of [/color][/size]Johannesburg[/color][/size]´s most underutilised and underdeveloped parks, with a property tussle underway for over ten years, with developers wanting to turn the park into anything from casinos to golf estates, and residents beating it back every time. This parks decline is a classic story of new South African mismanagement and corruption with the Johannesburg city council champing at the bit to sell the park for a quick buck.[/color]

Hong Kong Golf Club (formerly Royal HKGC until 25 years ago) has 3 courses (Old, New, Eden) at its main location in Fanling and a nine hole short course on the south side of HK island (Deep Water Bay).  Club is private.  The Fanling facility has hosted the Hong Kong Open on a composite course (10 holes from Eden and 8 from New) for I think 60+ years and in the early days of the Golf Magazine Top 100 (pre-Doak) the Composite was included in Golf's first two World Top 100 (actual back then World Top 50) listings in 1979 and 1981. 


HKGC is different from HK's Jockey Club which is a public facility.
