Photo Tour of Cummings Cove Golf Course - Hole by Hole Descriptions

Cove - Outward Nine
#1 Winding Creek ~ Par 5 ~ 545 Yards
A good starting hole par 5. Tee shot should be to the right of center in the fairway. The road crosses between the tee shot and 2nd landing area--it should not be in play for most players. If the 2nd shot is long, it must avoid the trees on the right and the creek that comes into play at about the 100 yard area: severely sloping green can be difficult.
#2 Up to Par ~ Par 3 ~ 138 Yards
The shortest par 3 on the course provides for a slightly uphill tee shot. The green complex allows for some interesting chip shots and putts. Left of this green or in the left bunker can be difficult. Should reward a good tee shot.
#3 Roadside Hole ~ Par 4 ~ 358 Yards
Downhill tee shot should be directed at the striped 150 yard marker located in the center of the fairway to provide a good look at the uphill 2nd shot. Open green that will require adjustment for the uphill shot. A good par 4 downhill then uphill.
#4 The Rock ~ Par 4 ~ 349 Yards
Medium length par 4 with an uphill tee shot placed right of the large rock on the left edge of the fairway. Hopefully, the tee shot will reach the plateau and provide a good view of the green or flag stick. This is a very sloping and severe green. Don’t 3 putt.
#5 Oak Tree ~ Par 3 ~ 154 Yards
A medium length par 3 with an attractive green setting. The right side of the green is the best target for the tee shot. Avoid the left side with bunkers and trees. Mountain views to the left.
#6 Tight Left ~ Par 4 ~ 378 Yards
Medium short downhill par 4 dogleg left. A good looking tee shot that should be directed to the right half of the fairway leaving 100-130 yards into tight green complex. Avoid the temptation to try to cut the dogleg--it is dangerous--small green will be difficult to hit.
#7 Waterfall ~ Par 4 ~ 303 Yards
Shortest par 4 on the golf course, but one of the prettiest with a waterfall directly behind the green. The tee shot should not be longer than 200 yards, or the pond on the left front of the green comes into play. The green will receive a good shot and provide a birdie opportunity…enjoy the waterfall-photo op!
#8 Falling Water ~ Par 3 ~ 180 Yards
This may be the prettiest hole at Cummings Cove. Uphill tee shot that demands precision. Can’t be short, left or right. The creek on the left will be an eye catcher, but not a good place to hit the golf ball. Difficult 2 level green with limited depth. Very pretty, but a tough hole!
 
#9 Longest Yards ~ Par 5 ~ 599 Yards
The longest hole on the course demands 3 well-struck shots to reach the green. Downhill tee shot with great view. Avoid the left side on this hole all the way. The left to right green complex provides a risk reward shot into it. Water comes in play over the right edge of the green. Play this hole smart.
