On top of that, an exciting range of green presents itself with the newest, shade tolerant Bermuda Hybrid grass.

Every aspect of Red Mountain Golf Club ensures her players are mesmerized by the exhilarating variety of play and the spectacular natural setting.
The Red Mountain Golf Club course is a standard par 72 covering just under 7,000 yards in total from the pro tees, making it a challenging but fun course for players across different levels.
