The tees, fairways and greens are beautifully manicured, the putting complexes are interesting and quick, and there's just something about being amongst tall trees and wilderness that's good for the soul.
Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes: McLay Kidd’s Midwest Masterpiece
David McLay Kidd has designed some of the most vast, fun-filled golf courses of the 21st Century. Beginning with the break-through of all break-throughs, Bandon Dunes in 1999, Kidd has led developments at Nanea Golf Club in Hawaii (2003), the Castle Course at St Andrews (2008), Tetherow in his now home town of Bend, Oregon (2008), Gamble Sands in Washington (2014), and a dozen or so others. His philosophy on golf course design sits in perfect harmony with Keiser’s on resorts; David McLay Kidd was destined to play a part in Sand Valley.
