Sea Trail Golf Resort is a Resort, 54 hole golf facility located in Sunset Beach, North Carolina. The facility has three 18 hole courses each designed by a different golf course architect. The three courses are, The Maples Golf Course, The Jones Golf Course, and The Byrd GolfCourse.
The three distinctly different signature courses, designed by Rees Jones, Dan Maples, and Willard Byrd can be enjoyed by players of all levels. The Maples Golf Course opened in 1985. The Jones and Byrd Golf Course opened in 1990.
Dan Maples Golf Course _____________________________________
The Maples Course is framed by twisted ancient oaks and tall Carolina pines. The medium-length, accuracy-demanding course features five holes that wind along the scenic Calabash Creek. This par 72 course has numerous waste bunkers, one of which extends the full length of a fairway. The course measures 6,797 yards from the blue tees; 6,330 yards from the white tees; 6,035 yards from the gold tees; and 5,110 yards from the red tees.
Rees Jones Golf Course ______________________________________
The Jones Course is a straightforward layout featuring generous mounded fairways bordered by scenic lakes and towering trees. The course has wide fairways. Water comes into play on 11 holes of the Par 72 championship course. In addition to water hazards, there are a number of po bunkers as well as large expanse bunkers makeing for a delightfully challenging game of golf. This course measures 6,761 yards from the blue tees; 6,334 yards from the white tees; 5,716 from the gold tees; and 4,912 yards from the red tees.
Willard Byrd Golf Course ______________________________________
The Willard Byrd Course requires a distinctively different approach thanks to a constricting tree line, challenging greenside bunkering, and lakes ranging from 14-20 acres. Strategically placed tee shots are essential for successful play on Byrd's undulating greens. A picturesque and scenic 18th hole between two beautiful ponds finishes the course at the Jones-Byrd Clubhouse. The course measures 6,740 yards from the blue tees; 6,251 yards from the white tees; 5,561 yards from the gold tees; and 4,621 yards from the red tees.
