Golf Info:Lake Toxaway Country Club Golf CourseThe new Lake Toxaway Country Club Golf Course opened on August 20, 2008. The $9 million course was designed by architect Kris W. Spence. The course has a par of 71 & measures approximately 6,418 yards. The design takes advantage of the topography & breathtaking views of the mountains & Lake Toxaway. It is fun & challenging for golfers of all skill levels. Kris Spence took ample time walking the previous course from the 1960's, taking into account the natural setting & potiential angles of play. "Everywhere you look there's dramatic scenery, from mountains with rock outcroppings to stunning lake waters. There's even a waterfall halfway up the mountain behind the fifth green," said Kris Spence. The ninth hole has a view of Lake Toxaway. "The back nine features more rises and falls, playing up to a plateau and back down again. The back side is also more secluded, favoring accuracy over distance. After the 17th green, there's a 100-foot climb to the tee at No. 18. From there golfers are exposed to a panoramic view of the mountains and lake, before hitting downhill to a challenging par-5 closing hole." (quoted from Lake Toxaway Country Club's website.)
