14,000 Square Foot Putting Course

Designed with the same spirit of casual competition that defines The Shoe, this expansive green invites golfers of all skill levels to roll putts, test their touch, & celebrate along the way.

Follow the 9-hole path for a match, or make your own game—cross-course putts, trick shots, & all! With dramatic undulation and countless angles to explore, every round is a little different (and a lot of fun). Whether you're kicking off your day or capping off your round, this is where good times and great putts come together.
