The Golf Course
Designed by Nelson & Haworth, the 18-hole championship golf course is a Par 71 with a maximum playing distance of 6234m. It has the longest Par 5 (564m) amongst all the local golf clubs. Located on the southern bank of the Kranji Reservoir, the scenic beauty of the golf course can be admired at a number of holes, where the reservoir forms the backdrop of the golf course, providing golfers with a breathtaking view during their play.

In addition to the scenic view, the course is known for its undulating fairways and greens as well as the canals and ponds at selected golf holes which increase the level of challenge for golfers. The course also comes complete with Chipping and Putting Greens. These practice areas are lighted for night usage. To better cater to golfers, the Club has 100 electric buggies that can be driven on the fairways. Golfers are also allowed to pull trolleys or carry their own golf bags at stipulated times.

A starter hut is strategically located for refreshments at start/turnaround. Marshals are around to control the speed of play and ensure that golfers observe the golf rules and etiquette such as the repair of divot/ball marks to keep the course in a pristine condition.

Grass Type
The roughs, fairways and tee boxes are turfed with the premium grass, Zoysia Matrella, which is often used in championship golf courses while Bermuda Tifdwarf is used for the greens. The first grass type allows golfers to have a more direct contact with the golf ball and clubface, thus giving them better control during their games. Another type of grass, Zoysia Altoro, which thrives well without much sunlight, has also been introduced to heavily shaded areas of the course.

Tee Boxes
These are turfed with Zoysia Matrella. The grass is flat and firm, enabling golfers to have a smooth execution of tee shots. Four sets of tees are strategically placed at each hole on Mondays and Tuesdays and three sets for any other day, making it suitable for all levels of play. Tee boxes are also elevated to ensure visibility of fairways and bunkers, making it easier for golfers to better plan their games.

Fairways
Featuring the same grass type as the tee boxes, the grass is soft and conducive to ball rolls. The undulating fairways is a trademark of the golf course.

Greens
The greens, turfed with Bermuda Tifdwarf, are well-manicured and maintained, enabling golfers to putt at their best form.

Roughs
These are turfed with Zoysia Matrella that many golfers fancy. The roughs reach up to two to three inches and are high in density too. Golfers have to avoid the roughs as their stray balls will probably perish within.

Drainage System
The course is sand-based and is equipped with an advanced wall-to-wall drainage system that allows the course to be drained and playable within half an hour after a downpour.

Course Signage
Signposts at the individual holes clearly indicate the distance and hole layouts of the respective holes, equipping golfers with sufficient information to strategise their shots
