Wolf Point Club
Wolf Point Club & Ranch was built in 2007 as a private playground for former ranch owner Al Stanger, and for the exclusive use of his family and a few very select friends. The "minimalist" Mike Nuzzo design is laid out on open ranchland, close to Carancahua Creek, equidistant between Houston and Corpus Christi on the Texas Gulf Coast.
This uber-private facility is unlikely to appear on the bucket lists of many golfers. It's name, location and the course designer all being relatively unknown to visiting golfers to the Lone Star state. Whether that will change given the impending sale of the property (in 2020) remains to be seen.
Private club - guests may only play if hosted by a member.
Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises.
