Golf Clubs & Course Overview Spring City Lake Course The Lake Course was designed by Robert Trent Jones Junior and is set on the banks of the Yang Zonghai Lake. It is known for its green terraces, breathtaking lake views, narrow fairways and crisscrossing trenches. A 150-yard elevation drop between Hole 1 on the hill and Hole 9 by the lakeside provides for unique vistas.
Spring City Mountain Course The Mountain Course was designed by Jack Nicklaus and is set on high grounds overlooking the Yang Zonghai Lake. This offers golfers spectacular views of the picturesque lake and the verdant hills.
Yunling Golf Course Yunling opened in 2011 and was designed by Rees Jones. The 27-hole facility features a mix of both open and wooded holes, panoramic views of Yangzong Lake and elevation changes of nearly 600 feet. The terrain makes for spectacular golf, with eye candy bunkers, both strategic and pretty, and views down on the surrounding world at every turn.
Stoneforest International Country Club Stoneforest ICC has three 18-hole international championship-level golf courses, Yufeng Ridge (7,241 yards), Masters' Resort (7,203 yards) and Leaders' Peak (7,528 yards). All three are designed by the world's famous golf course designer Brian Curley and integrate the golfing landscape with the primitive stone landscape. Take your cameras and videos – these are memories you don’t want to forget!
