Red Mountain Golf Club Phuket (Overview)
Located just 10 miles north of Grants Pass is, "the best little golf course in town," Red Mountain. Set just below the foothills of Southern Oregon, this breathtaking executive golf course makes the perfect outing for the whole family. Red Mountain Golf Course has a fun and challenging layout great for all ages and abilities.
The course has a few shorter par 4’s to give some good birdie chances, but also for the longer hitters there is the 12th, a 481 yard par 4. The par 3’s all require accurate shot placement and they are as beautiful to look at as they are challenging to play. For example, the signature ninth hole has a vertical drop of 50 meters from tee to green and the shot must be carefully threaded through large pine trees lining both sides of the hole. The four par 5’s are also all unique. The 6th and 10th holes play downhill and are both over 500 yards. The 8th and 18th are uphill and shorter. Each of the four holes presents golfers with different challenges that require a variety of shots.
For golfers wanting to spend more time at the course, there are excellent shared practice facilities, a grass driving range, as well as a fully stocked club house for 19th hole formalities. While Loch Palm is an optional walk or ride course, golf carts are compulsory at Red Mountain. This is usually a negative, but in the case of the hilly Red Mountain course, it is unlikely that anyone on a golf vacation would opt to walk this layout anyway. Loch Palm’s new Red Mountain course is one of the top three Phuket courses and should be part of any golf package to the area.
